File Services • Change the SMB service configuration

Mac user Wants to Use Carbon Copy Cloner by Bombitch to back up files it's a mac version of Rsync

I know backing mac files Some NAS services have obtuse file name restrictions and will create issues, they suggest

Change the SMB service configuration on the NAS

If your NAS device allows changes to its SMB configuration, you can add "mangled names = no" to the end of its smb.conf file to disable SMB name mangling

Append the smb.conf file:
sudo -s
echo "mangled names = no" >> /etc/samba/smb.conf

Is this still relevant do I need to make these amends or should I Use AFP Shares instead?
