Use a network mounted drive with Time Machine
Disappointed when Leopard arrived and you couldn't back up to a shared network drive using Time Machine? Well put away that razor blade, Sally. We've got a trick for you.
Open Terminal (Applications/Utilities) and enter the following (on one line, as one command), then hit Enter:
defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1
Open Time Machine preferences and enjoy the benefits of network storage.

Question… for a profile that is using FileVault.. the user has to be logged out in order for TM to back up that profile .. how would this work for that user?
Thanks
