Backing up multiple machines - odd results
I have got TM working fine on my iMac using USB connected drive (tried AEBS but too unreliable).
I've shared the disk out, and from my Macbook get offered the chance to use the iMac connected disk for TM.
So run the first back - it works, but instead of using the correct folders as set up by the iMac, it leaves a 'sparsebundle' file in the root of the remote drive, and a mounted image of the backup on the macbook.
Really odd, because when I first set it up it seemed to work correctly and put the files in a separate folder in the backups.backupdb folder on the USB drive.
