Comment 19 for bug 810732

All,

Followed the instructions and got my iMac backing-up again (finally, phew). I deleted the old backup to start with a fresh new one. iMac indicating that it had 171Gb to back up. Started nicely for the first couple of hours until it bailed out stating the backup device was no longer available (du -s of the Timemachine directory on my ubuntu box gives 151G stored so suspect it bailed out before the end). Nothing in the logs and afpd still running. Restarted all the services but still no joy: iMac does not see the backup device anymore.

Any thoughts on where to look for why it failed and won't find mu ubuntu box (i386 running the server kernel)?

One other thing, I installed netatalk from teh ubuntu repos. afpd -V gets me a version of 2.0.5, NOT 2.2 beta??

Appreciate the help.

Herman
