I have the same problem. I am backing up to a USB drive attached to a Netgear wireless router.
In configuring Deja Dup, after struggling with the "Storage" (i.e., file location) settings for a while, I selected custom location and added the following URI:
smb:/
Where "router-drive" is the name of the USB drive attached to my router, "usb_storage" seems to be a necessary part of the path to the USB drive (not sure why ... ), and "Notebook_Backup" is the folder I created on the USB drive for this purpose.
Deja Dup seems to find the USB drive and folder and begin the back-up process, but at a certain point stops and flashes the "Backup Failed ... Success" message. The routine did create about 250 Duplicity .gpg files (26.2 MB each) in /Notebook_Storage, but I have no way of telling if the back up is complete. The USB drive is not even 10% full.
I am running Ubutu 11.10, and this is my first involvement with Duplicity or Deja Dup. In case it's not painfully obvious from the above, I'm a Linux beginner with 10 years of experience .....
