Time Machine
Any way to use time machine?
Re: Time Machine
I have posted in the wiki about this, and will continue to update it as new ways come about.
The wiki page is http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Backups ... me_Machine
I have not gotten this to work with a Mac computer (ie bought from Apple) but I have heard it works on Hackintosh (ie OS X on a PC).
If you find a better way please let me know and I will test it out and create a tutorial in the wiki as well.
A good solution ive found and use daily is SuperDuper!.
The link will take you to the wiki page which contains a tutorial on how to backup with it over the network.
I hope this helps.

Re: Time Machine
the most reliable way with supported filesystems is using nfs I think.
I tried mounting a drive using the smb protocol (with the hack as described on the wiki) but that didn't go over too well with time machine, it can't write it's files (directory permissions are OK though).
Soon I'll get a Mac to play and test with.
I noted however that when you delete a samba share the directory itself is kept, is this default behaviour?
next to that, OS X 10.5 seems to have some issues with mounting SMB & NFS from the same server (for so far I've tested, but I could have made a mistake now that I think of it). Does anyone have some experience with this?

yes, though we talk of removing the files too. not sure it's a great idea.when you delete a samba share the directory itself is kept, is this default behaviour?
the shares manager should be messing with user files. maybe it should be an option.
i do it all the time. i will give you that os x does get confused periodically about this. not sure if it's nfs or samba or osx at fault here, though i strongly suspect osx.OS X 10.5 seems to have some issues with mounting SMB & NFS from the same server (for so far I've tested, but I could have made a mistake now that I think of it)
