So, I’m working on a netatalk build at home on my OpenSolaris boxes – both a personal project as well as a skill set builder for future opportunities. Thankfully, a lot of the pain of netatalk builds has been resolved in the 2.2 branch, and the 2.2.1 release claims to support Lion and TimeMachine. So, after 30 minutes of futzing around, I’ve got it built and installed, but I’m stuck (for the evening) on the TimeMachine flags – getting an error on the OS X side of things that I don’t have the proper “read, write and append permissions”, which is very much a netatalk config issue. When I’m a little more clear headed, perhaps over Thanksgiving weekend, I’ll see if I can built it the rest of the way. Or, I’ll turn to RHEL, which I know a lot better these days.
