jamesyc/TimeCapsuleSMB v2.1.0-rc2

on GitHub

v2.1.0-rc2 is considered stable enough for release soon. Most bugs and issues have been patched.

This update changes the name of the device (we now use Apple's naming "James's Airport Time Capsule" instead of the name used in previous versions "Time Capsule Samba 123"); so if you are updating from an older version, you will need to remove the drive from Time Machine and reboot your Mac, and re-add the drive with the new name

What's Changed

• Updated Samba from Samba 4.8.12 (from 2019) to latest Samba! (Currently Samba 4.24.1 from 2026).
  • Add checks to deploy to fail if the checksum does not match
  • Fix issues with macOS not detecting the disk in Time Machine settings
  • Fix Samba VFS at-path fallback and fdopendir lifetime

Known bug

• Time Machine backups occasionally fail due to mdns disappearing, #105
