10.5 ::: Tune your TimeMachine a bit

Posted by: fidel in Terminal, mac, tags: , , , , , , ,

The default setting of TimeMachine let you backup only to directly connected drives (usb & firewire i guess) but not to the network.

Well sounds pretty far away from perfect…at least for me.

To enable the network support open Terminal.app and enter the following:

defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1

Now TimeMachine should support unsupported network volumes.
