Time Machine backup wont work on a new System

Hello

I have a new ZimaOS installed on a MiniPc with some external USB Disks.

I did follow the Guide on how to setup a Share for Time Machine but my Mac returns a error every time I try to start the initial backup. I can acces the share, create Folders and Files over the Network but TM keeps failing. Even reformated the USB Drive with ext4 twice.

The error message says something about wrong username and password but I double checked this as well….

How to get that to work as intended ? Any help appreciated

Hello,

The TimeMachine under ZimaOS is a very alleviating science. I renamed my MBP in accent (because I’m French) and without emoji, my TM only worked once as a result.

I think it’s a user rights issue that ZimaOS doesn’t know how to handle too well, or simply forgetting at each reboot…

yes I did see your Previous Post about having : in your Name, however mine is MBP_Antonius so I dont think its the name that causes trouble.

Plus I come from UmbrelOS and Unraid and on both systems TM did work with the exact same hardware
