Instead of using the gui schedule program, use a .CMD file and the NTBACKUP
command line program/options. In the .CMD file, you could map the drives.

example:

backup.cmd
--------------------
net use g: \\servername\sharename
net use u: \\servername\sharename
ntbackup backup "@c:\backup\daily.bks" /j "Daily Exchange" /v:yes /l:f /m
normal /hc:on /n "E:FULL-%1-%2"  /p "dlt"
EOF
---------------------

The daily.bks contains the selections of what to backup.
