Hello. I understand this is half OT, but, on the other hand, the "manager" would be a FreeBSD box :) I've got a network with several Macs, all of which are doing backups with TimeMachine to USB disks and/or NASes. Does anyone know of any way to "centralize" TM management? By "centralize" I mean: get reports, control scheduling, possibly fine tune retention, ecc... Right now I've put up some quick&dirty scripts which partially achieve this, but the way to go is long... I'm thinking about starting an open-source project with this, in case anyone is interested and want to help, but of course, if any suitable thing (which I did not find) already exists, this would be pointless. bye & Thanks av.
