Yeah I recently migrated my NAS and took the opportunity to switch from AFP to SMB for my Time Machine backups. There were so many problems like the ones you describe that I gave up and went back to AFP. Looks like I'm going to be forced to spend a weekend with Claude figuring this out.

If you're using Synology, a couple years ago they finally published a help article that lists (IIRC) 3-5 settings important to switching from AFP to SMB. I had tried before that but to no avail.
Thanks. I have my own hand-rolled solution on my Ubuntu-based homelab server. Using netatalk, I think?
