Hey guys.
Some weeks ago I purchased a raidsonic 4220-b NAS device that seemed rather funky at first (open source - based on linux, 2 * 1.5tb drives) but I soon ran into a lot of problems (see my blog post - http://peter-gent.com/?p=57#more-57).
I've only just been able to connect to an NFS share on snow leopard, but the snag is I have to manually connect to the drive share, specifying a password each time. Then I have to connect through 'connect to server' before the NFS will register and the drive will appear in /volumes/ or on the finder sidebar. Perhaps someone could advise me on a way to get around this small issue?
Secondly, when the drive is mounted I have no problems in actually connecting to the drive and transfering files to and from the NAS storage in finder. However, when I try to perform a backup to the drive, it just tells me that "Time machine could not complete the backup" "the backup disk is not available".
Could anyone suggest some work arounds here ? Thanks muchly!
