The volsizelimit entry is a good one to use if you want to limit TimeMachine to a certain amount of space on-disk. Something like -mimicmodel TimeCapsule6,106 is a decent choice.ĭefault Avahi installations often broadcast other service announcements like SSH, you might want to remove these. To add a device-info service corresponding to a Mac model (this still doesn't happen correctly by the way, device-info should not be broadcast though Avahi does it), just add a mimicmodel entry to nf. Certainly you didn't add a service for "adisk", the TimeMachine service, so it must already be working. I know the Ubuntu pkg is seriously-outdated with respect to netatalk releases, but I think it still supports Avahi's DBUS link to register services, meaning the rvice is unnecessary.

Just in case anyone is interested, here is the complete list of icons and how to make your Ubuntu AFP shares take on that image. This is where you actually declare your shared file. Too many to list actually, but if you're interested you can find the name strings in /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/ist If you type the model name in wrong, your AFP share will show up as a Cinema Display in Finder. NOTE: Just for fun you can change the string "model=TimeCapsule" to the following devices to change how they appear in Finder on OSX: Installing Netatalk, the open source Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) implementation is easy! The packages are already in the repos, which makes me wonder why it's not enabled by default. But for a much more economical approach than shelling out around $300 for an over-glorified USB drive, you could just follow this guide to set up your Ubuntu file server to look and behave exactly like Time Machine would expect a real Time Capsule or Mac to. Certainly people with a lot more money to burn than me. I don't know too many people who stay exclusively within the "walled garden" for all their computing needs. My assumption is that their intent is merely to bolster their hardware sales. Now, with Mac OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion", it's gotten to the point where essentially the only places you can back up your system using Time Machine are either on another Mac OS X File Server or on an Apple Time Capsule. Starting with the release of OSX 10.7 Lion, Apple started cinching down on where you could back up your system to, ostensibly for security reasons.
