I added a new client, dvl-pro03 In short: zfs create system/data/time_capsule/dvl-pro03 createuser dvl-pro03 sudo chown dvl-pro03:dvl-pro03 /data/time_capsule/dvl-pro03 Add this to /usr/local/etc/afp.conf [dvl-pro03] path = /data/time_capsule/dvl-pro03 valid users = dvl-pro03 time machine = yes That client is now backing itself up. -- Dan Langille dan@langille.org : https://langille.org/
