It sounds like it's still

It sounds like it's still trying to mount via Samba, and perhaps you've disabled the Samba share on the server? Or is this with a completely new setup?

Check your server's logs and see if your Mac is even trying to mount the share. I've definitely encountered the above error before, but but it was on older versions of 10.5 and I haven't had any issues the last few times I've moved things around.

Hi, i'm trying to use an NFS share to backup my mac with time machine.
I can see/mount the NFS share(that is on an Ubuntu machine) with Finder and/or via Terminal but when i try to start the backup i get this message:

Jan 4 23:39:50 icirpo /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[739]: Backup requested by user
Jan 4 23:39:50 icirpo /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[739]: Starting standard backup
Jan 4 23:39:50 icirpo /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[739]: Error -35 while resolving alias to backup target
Jan 4 23:39:55 icirpo /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[739]: Backup failed with error: 19

any suggestions?

thanks
