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.

I am an old UNIX and Mac hand but new to samba. My ultimate aim is to use a samba share with Time Machine. I have built an up to date version of samba (4.9.2) which has the necessary support for Time Machine and installed it on my linux system (ubuntu 18.04), and I have it sharing a volume which I can mount from my Mac. A good start ;) The problem is that I get permission errors whenever I try

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

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

Hi, I'm trying to make a small script to get rid of Apple's TimeMachine. The aim is to backup the files of my company. I setup a MacMini with a lot of storage attached to it. The MacMini connects every once in a while to our data server (XServe) through SSH and pulls the files that need to be saved (I'm using the --link-dest option to limit the amount of files transferred, and to keep

(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 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

Hi, I configured Samba 4.8.5 on Debian (Buster) with vfs_fruit as a TimeMachine destination and while it detects it and does the initial backup to some extent (30GB out of 200GB), TimeMachine then fails with a message about the disk identity having changed. Options are “don’t backup” and “backup anyway”. When using “backup anyway”, the backup creates a secondary sparse image and starts from

hey folks,   I am trying to change the fruit:model value for changing the icon in the mac os finder. After digging a little bit in the source code I saw that "source3/smbd/avahi_register.c" does not contain a line where info like <service> <type>_device-info._tcp</type> <port>0</port> <txt-record>model=RackMac</txt-record> is added to avahi. In

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

Hi Shakeel, I had the same problem building app_swift (1.6..) myself and searched the web far-and-wide for a solution. I eventually contacted Darren Sessions -- who was maintaining that plug-in -- about a month ago. He was involved in another project and said he might be able get to it after a few weeks. But, since then, his website http://www.darrensessions.com/ has gone out of comission. I

I have now - the 'net view' output is now sensible, and reports "Time Machine for gac" (which is the expected comment). But in log.smbd, it is now looking for a folder called "/backups/timemachine/DOMAIN\username" so access to the share itself is still not working 18 Sep 2019, 11:54 by samba at lists.samba.org: > Have you tried to replace?%U in the path

Hi knowledgable Samba folks, I have a Samba server (Ubuntu 18.04, with the packages from apt.van-belle.nl so that I can run recent versions of Samba with Time Machine). This box is configured to use Active Directory authentication as a domain member. Happy to share relevant parts of configuration if necessary, feel free to just ask. I have two shares that are configured to use %U username

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:

Hi list, I just upgraded my Samba AD DC to v4.9.4. Unfortunately, I can't recall which version I had before that, I believe it must have been something between 4.6 and 4.8. Anyway, now that the upgrade is done, it looks like DNS is gone. Host commands are timing out, netstat reveals that no process is listening on :53. Other than that, Samba is starting and working fine. I can list shares,

Dear all, I've an issue with my samba installation with a version of samba 4.9.2 that I’ve compiled for Ubuntu 16.04. Samba works without any particular issues until I try to use the sharing for Time Machine backup. In fact, after starting the Time Machine backup after a while, random time like 2-3 hours of backup, I got the following panic error and the backup stops and I need to reboot

I currrently have Asterisk 1.2.8 with a TE110P Zaptel card tied to our Nortal DMS-10 switch via T1. This T1 trunk is configured for Feature Group D MF. The purpose of this is for LD delivery to a VoIP LD provider as a LD choice for our customers off of the DMS-10. When I sieze a channel on the zaptel, I get a spill of digits from the switch that is the called number, and I can see that in

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
