10.5 ::: Tune your TimeMachine a bit
Posted by: fidel in Terminal, mac, tags: 10.5, backup to network drives, cli, defaults, ShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes, system preferences, terminal, Time MachineThe 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.
