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.

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

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

Hai, Before we can say its a bug. Can you show the complete smb.conf Anonimized where needed offcourse.

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

Hai, I have/can recreate a build with this enable, but these would not make it into my repo. (yet) This is because i can not test the spotlight/tracker ( and/or TimeMachine ) settings. So.. There is the link with samba 4.6.7 builded for debian Jessie with spotlight enabled. Not signed, only amd64 arch. https://downloads.van-belle.nl/samba4/samba-spotlight-enabled.tar.gz Included :

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

No problem - I've pastebin'ed it rather than include it, I don't know what this list's preferences are for config files.?https://pastebin.com/70vTmWyL <https://pastebin.com/70vTmWyL> Note that there's a lot of lines in there - the config has been ported between several boxes and upgrades over at least the 6 years I've been with this company. The thing to remember is

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 all. I can't apply permission to my Samba Share via Windows Active directory. My Samba share is : [Demo] path = /srv/samba/demo/ read only = no valid users = +JASONDOMAINI\linux +JASONDOMAINI\local admins writable = yes #inherrit owner = yes #inherit permissions = yes force group = JASONDOMAINI\linux I created a group in Windows Active Directory with Linux name and add my

Computer A runs my samba server. Has unix extensions = off, wide links = on (don't think this one matters with unix extensions off...) This way, if I have a symlink on my shares, clients see it as a normal file, not as a symlink. This works fine, even for symlinks to files outside the shares paths. Except when the symlink points to a file that is on a CIFS mount. So say I have computer B

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

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

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

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

Hi, I experience a slow backup problem with Time Machine on Mac. The info below does not help to reduce the backup time to a reasonable period. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204412 So I'd like to use grsync/rsync to incrementally back my disk. I know that Time Machine somehow can create hard links to manage incremental links. Since grsync/rsync is primarily targeted at Linux, is it a

Hi, I got a problem with Google Sketchup Mac so I tried to install the Windows version via Wine. It's installed but doesn't work. i tried to uninstall it in the 'add/delete programs' section of Wine. At the end I get a message saying that Sketchup has been uninstalled succesfully, but actually nothing changes: Sketchup still appears in the list of programs and no files have been
