TL;DR: Time Machine cannot create a *new* backup on my shared drive, but can add to an *existing* backup. I'm running macOS Catalina and my Time Machine backs up to a Debian 10 server with NetAtalk and Avahi. Since Mavericks macOS has preferred SMB, and given SMB is marginally faster I decided to switch to using SMB for the Time Machine shares. On a fresh AFP share I can start a new Time

Is it possible to backup Mac OS devices through a Samba share on Samba 4.4.6 on Fedora 24 with Time Machine? I am able to successfully advertise the share through Avahi, connect to it in Finder, and read/write files. I am also able to see the share as a destination in Time Machine, but selecting it shows an error that "The selected network backup disk does not support the required

Hai Daniel, Yes yes.. As you can see in my change log.

Hai, https://downloads.van-belle.nl/samba4/examples/ Here are 2 files for a time machine setup. An example config : samba-491-conf.txt And the timemachine.service file Get them and adjust your config. These are tested by other samba list users and they reported this works.

Hi, tl;dr - Samba 4.8.5 broke macOS's Time Machine support (at least for me), patching in the "follow-up patch" from https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13441 makes it work again. It would be great if it could be included in an official patch release soon. :) Just writing about the problem and solution here, in case someone else stumbles upon it. Couldn't find any

Dear all; I?m running smbd 4.9.5-Debian and I?m struggling to get Time Machine support to work. The server is running Debian Buster, and the client is macOS High Sierra. I can mount the share just fine on its own, but as soon as I tell Time Machine to ?Back Up Now?, it says ?Preparing Backup,? ?Looking for Backup Disk,? and then nothing. The little red exclamation mark tells me that "The

Hello Kevin, Mac OS by default looks for TimeMachine volumes over AFP not CIFS-SMB… Like you, I experimented with Samba a couple of years ago to try to get it to work anyway. With a few modifications on the client’s part and some configuration on the Samba server I got it to work… but recovery only worked for clients that I had configured in advance… Recovery with the Mac OS tools (Migration

Hello, I had been running Samba 4.8 for a few years without any problems, and then upgraded to 4.10. Since then I?ve been having problems with some accounts connecting, while some connect fine still. I haven?t been able to figure out why. My server is a relatively simple standalone server, using the LDAP password backend. A failing user authenticates OK and ends up like this in the logs:

Hello Adam, have you tried to increase /run/lock tmpfs mount size on your server yet? On Debian it is 5MB by default that may be not enough for Samba. You can do it by adding the following line into /etc/fstab: none /run/lock tmpfs nodev,noexec,nosuid,size=10485760 0 0 and `sudo mount -o remount /run/lock' command (or just simply reboot). Hope it helps. Regards, Andriy On Mar 21

Hello, I've encountered recurring issue with samba crashes when creating initial Time Machine backup on samba share from Mac. Whole scenario, details about software and logs are below. On Mac client: connected to smb share with "valid user" account; added smb share as Time Machine disk. Time machine has been set for automatic backup, I've selected Back Up Now. Connection dies

I am on a Mac OS 12.6.8. I have gotten Samba to work great with TimeMachine and general sharing of directories off the server which is running FreeBSD 13.2 with Samba Version 4.16.10. The one issue I am seeing is that when I have a Mac Disk Image mounted from a Samba share it will not unmount unless I hit the force eject option. When I run ?sudo smbstatus? on the server I see the mounted disk

TimeMachine is NOT enabled in the official debian packages. If you want time machine, report it at debian as bug/request if you want this enabled, and untill then, You can use my packages, where timemachine is enabled. Or rebuild the the debian packages your self and enable it, that part only is very easy. + what Rowland told you. ;-) Greetz, Louis > -----Oorspronkelijk

Hi All, at work all our clients are macs (10.10 yosemite). We are trying to move from the classical afp file server to a samba based file server. After a lot of testing, things now works more or less: a mac server acts as Kerberos+OpenLDAP and a linux debian 7 box is doing the file server with samba 4.2.0. A client which has "joined" (which is bound in mac jargon) the

(example: Configure Samba to Work Better with Mac OS X [ https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configure_Samba_to_Work_Better_with_Mac_OS_X] ). Thanks for the suggestion though. I've now been trying out the various Apple specific flags in vfs_fruit ( https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/vfs_fruit.8.html), though with no success thus far. Example settings tried in smb.conf: [global]

Hello I am trying to integrate OS X 10.10.4 clients into existing Samba infractructure run by our IT department. We are currently using Samba 4.2.3. File share is stored on iSCSI array with ext4 filesystem which should support both ACL and XATTR. We are trying to setup vfs_fruit module to avoid possible performance problems on OS X clients. We do NOT user netatalk. Current vfs_fruit config:
