pbk2513 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Looks like those at 9to5mac has posted yet another way to enabled shared drives for TM. http://9to5mac.com/time-machine-fix-flux-c...262455#comments As they rightly stat, apple disabled this for a reason, so use on your own risk Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/70467-another-way-to-enabled-time-machine-for-smb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
exscape Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Anyone tried it? I can't see Time Machine working properly without multi-links (i.e. directory hard links)... At least not today, without ZFS doing the dirty work.

hobo Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Did not try the Automator application, but the original Terminal command. Works as promised. You can use AFP, NFS or SMB to connect to any given share, regardless what the underlying filesystem is (you could even use NTFS if you like) Anyway: The perfomance using 54Mbit WiFi is extremely poor. Sometimes TM fails to backup; wired Ethernet is o.k. though...
