Hi,

do you possibly mean TimeCapsule and not TimeMachine ? TimeMachine is a software by Apple, and as replied, its format is not compatible with the one of Dejadup.
However, Apple also sells a wifi NAS (external drive on wifi) called TimeCapsule. This device should be usable with Linux.
See http://task3.cc/tag/time-capsule-deja-dup/ (untested by me).

Can you help with this problem?
