Re: [Leo] Use Time Machine on an NFS mounted disk

Hmm... Pretty much of a slam dunk to set up. My only catch was, I had to remember that I have my hostname set up as an FQDN rather than a shortname. The backup program *really* cares about that in the bundle/file name.

So yours is working over NFS? I need to figure out what's up with FreeBSD's rpc.lockd so I can use NFS instead. Although SMB is working fine so far.

Nah... SMB. And it's slow as balls. Once it completes the initial sync, I'll see if I can dismount the SMB share and remount as NFS. I'm just a touch concerned that, if I do so, the Mac GUI may or may not let me set the NFS parameters that I need to to make the NFS connection perform well. Having worked with my ReadyNAS and my Sun machines, the ReadyNAS really benefits from forcing it to communicate with a specific set of communication parameters rather than letting it "negotiate" the connection.
