AppleInsider | Apple yanks wireless backup from Leopard last minute
Wow, I hadn’t noticed this had gone.
Digging deeper, it appears that you can only use Time Machine to backup to network drives shared using “Apple File Protocol”, rather than the more common SMB. Glad I have my Drobo hooked up to a Mac Mini, because that’s one of the main reasons I bought it.
