Hi
No matter what I do I cannot get LMCE to make use of my NAS (using freenas)
it sees it as a windows share but thats as far as it goes.
perhaps I need to set the shares manually as stated in other places
but Ive had no luck with that either
in windows it looks like this:
//nasbox/NASbox/MOVIES
//nasbox/NASbox/MP3s
I need a fresh perspective, as my brain is on overload with reading up on this.

The easiest is way is to set up a sambahelper user on the FREENAS box. I have two shares that I access. I had problems (and continue to have intermittent) with the share not showing up, but the reliability increase greatly when I created a sambahelper user.
cat /usr/pluto/var/sambaCredentials.secret to get the password.

Take a look at this other post I just submitted, which help correct this problem. I have used PlutoHome and have recently switched to LinuxMCE, so the instructions I wrote earlier where from my previous experiences, but I too had trouble today mount my FREENAS box, so I posted some questions about this issue.
