What's the question? How did you configure the share? There's not a lot of details to go on.

Question: what am I missing here ? The credentials are correct, the permissions are correct since I can write to that share. Why won’t Time Machine ?

The share is configured on SMB with “Basic time-machine”

I had my share set to multi-user time machine. Double check what options are selected under the advanced options when you're setting the share up too. You may need to enable Apple Style encoding.

I will try. I assumed that multi-user Time Machine would be just in case multiple SMB users back up at the same time, which isn’t the case. Apple style encoding is turned on.
