Hello,
Is there any way to save a Timeshift backup to my local NAS? The NAS is
running Ubuntu Server 18.04LTS and has 5.46TB of drive space using the
BTRFS. The NAS is also cited in my main computer's fstab.
Excert from fstab file:
# This is the NAS entry.
# Mount script was added to GUI System Settings>startup>Autostart to
mount only when NAS is online.
192.168.1.105:/nas /media/NAS nfs
rw,hard,noexec,noauto,user,retrans=1,retry=0 0 0
#
I move files to and from the NAS daily so why can't Timeshift "see" and
use the NAS? Is there anything I can do to configure Timeshift to use
my NAS? Do you plan to add this ability to future versions of
Timeshare? Please advise.
Respectfully,
Mark A. Hummel
