Title: OS X local folder backup
Post by: joelcampion on January 11, 2014, 03:42:57 PM

Hi,

I am trying to set up a local back up of a folder on OS X and I keep getting a fail when I test the link out. I have managed to get it working on a PC, so I know I am on the right path.

I'm obviously in 'Local Backups'. I have 'LAN Backup' checked and have the folder option checked. The IP of the NAS is 192.168.0.15 and the folder I'm trying to backup on the Mac is /Users/joelcampion/Documents, and is set as a shared folder. Therefore, I have tried \\192.168.0.15\User\joelcampion\Documents and this is when I get the fail. I have tried with and without the account details (username and password) and I've added an extra '\' at the end as well.

My question(s) is (are), am I doing this correctly? Are there any obvious things I'm doing wrong? Or does this just not work on a Mac.

I can't see anything anywhere with this specific issue, both on these forums or on Google.

Thanks
Joel

Same problem.

Once I wanted to create partitions on my RAID to control Time Machine's size...
I didn't found how to do...

By the way, if someone have an idea  ;)
