For full time machine support in fedora, avahi(bonjour) and netatalk(afp) need to be installed
Install [[AFP]] and Avahi:
* in Applevolume.default add
*Change UserName to your username and /var/hda/files/timemachine to your timemachine folder, the first line will also publish your homefolder to your mac but was necessary in my setup to work

#use Journaled/case sensitive
#name has to be Backup of ComputerName
#and save it to the timemachine share
