Making Time Machine work with the ReadyNAS

That's interesting, I have no problem being the ginnie pig for this. I doubt the size is going to be a problem, since I'm currently working with a 160gb HDD in the macbook, theoretically(on the mac side) old back ups get deleted anywhere between 2-3 months depending on space on the external and are then replaced with fresh ones to keep down on mold.

I'll have to give some info further down the line on if backups are indeed being removed after some time. I also realize that deleting files from the sparsebundle that I made would be irrelevant (been checking to see if anything was added to it on my share) however other then when the system is backing up does anyone know of a way to get into the external drive that shows up? Because I know I can defiantly root through the backups.db folder and get rid of old dates manually should the need arise. And if I remove files from there does anyone know if it effects the sparsebundle size in return? Or does the sparsebundle stay bloated?
