Time Machine - Username and password to Nas box.

Hi,

We have a Nas box we are using for Time Machine, currently it's setup locally on the machines however i would like to set it up via Casper so we can manage it.

The Nas has Bonjour enabled and currently backs up without the need of mounting.

However it does require a User Name and password.

within Casper you have the options to set the time machine server address and a couple of settings but there isn't any option for adding a user name and password for the time machine server. How can i add this?

Also, i was expecting to see a time machine or something section within the machine management section so i can easily see when it was last backed up. Where would i fine this information?

Thanks,

Chris.
