SD 1.55, OSX 10.3, not seeing ethernet drive??

I've been using an Intel Mini, SuperDuper 2 (registered) and backing up to both a LaCie ethernet drive and a LaCie firewire drive. Both work fine, no problem.
I mount partitions from the LaCie ethernet drive from /Finder/Connect to Server/ and they show up on the desktop as folders.
(Drag and drop did NOT work reliably, copying to either of these drives, but SuperDuper did a complete first copy and updates to both of them. Just last week. Finally backed up well!)

Yesterday, the 366th day after I bought the Mini, it woke up dead -- light's on, nobody home.
Applecare vacation coming up for it.


Today, I'm using my G3 "Pismo" Powerbook, and on it opened up my older SuperDuper 1.55(v74) figuring I might as well back it up to the network drive also.
(I had registered the older version a while back, but never actually used it).

Okay, here's the oddity, or problem:

SD 1.55 on the G3 Pismo isn't seeing the LaCie ethernet drive. Not at all. The folder from it, mounted on the desktop, works fine but doesn't appear in the pulldown menu.

Is this blind spot normal behavior for the older version, or am I doing something wrong here?
