    netatalk with external usb hard disk

    I want to use my WD Mybook as backup device for leopard.
    I read the article
    http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/...achine-volume/

    Everything works fine if I use my local hard drive.
    Once I configure netatalk to use my usb-harddrive, I get a connection failed

    my /etc/fstab entry:
    Code:
    /dev/sdb4       /media/mybook/backup    ext3 defaults,user,noauto 0     0
    my /etc/netatalk/AppleVolumes.default
    Code:
    /media/mybook/backup TimeMachine allow:myuser cnidscheme:cdb options:usedots,upriv
    directory settings /media/mybook/backup
    Code:
    drwxrwxrwx   5 myuser myuser  4096 2009-01-16 20:23 backup

    I'm using ubuntu server 8.10

    Do you have any idea?
    Kind regards

    I'v found the solution. I've uninstalled netatalk from ubuntu 8.10 and followed the tutorial from:
    http://www.zaphu.com/2008/04/29/ubun...-protocol-afp/

    did some modifications from
    http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/...achine-volume/


    server and time machine is working now.
