NAME

6       afp_voluuid.conf - Configuration file used by afpd(8) to specify UUID
7       for Time Machine volume
8

DESCRIPTION

10       /var/lib/netatalk/afp_voluuid.conf is the configuration file used by
11       afpd to specify UUID of Time Machine volume automagically. The
12       configuration lines are composed like:
13
14       "volume name" uuid-string
15
16       The first field is volume name. Volume names must be quoted if they
17       contain spaces. The second field is the 36 character hexadecimal ASCII
18       string representation of a UUID.
19
20       The leading spaces and tabs are ignored. Blank lines are ignored. The
21       lines prefixed with # are ignored. The illegal lines are ignored.
22
23           Note
24           This UUID is advertised by Zeroconf in order to provide robust
25           disambiguation of Time Machine volume.
26
27           The afpd generates the UUID from random numbers and saves it into
28           afp_voluuid.conf, only when setting "time machine = yes" option in
29           afp.conf.
30
31           This file should not be thoughtlessly edited and be copied onto
32           another server.
