10.5: Set up Time Machine on a NAS in three easy steps
Authored by: jg167 on Mar 08, '09 01:30:11AM
I think the hdiutil command shown is wrong. At least in 10.5.6 I used
the info from http://appleclinic.wordpress.com/2008/10/30/time-machine-on-nas/

showing
sudo hdiutil create -size $GIGg -type SPARSEBUNDLE -nospotlight -volname "Backup of My Mac" -fs "Case-sensitive Journaled HFS+" -verbose ./$Computername_MACaddress

this (plus the default write unsupportedNetwork drive thing) worked, TM sees the "drive".
