Using Network Storage with Amahi

[theevilempire]

I'm very new to Linux, and servers in general. But I do currently have a rudimentary FreeNAS server setup to share with my LAN over AFP and SMB.

I was trying to find in the Amahi documentation know how to use it with existing network storage. Is this possible? Specifically, I know that since Amahi is based on Fedora that it would be possible to mount network storage just as you would in any other Linux distribution. But is it possible through the Amahi interface? And is it possible to do so, so that the drives are available for all of Amahi's services?

I'm flexible on what sharing service is used. SMB, AFP, CFIS are all fine and supported by FreeNAS.

Depends on how you mount the NAS. You can check the wiki for assistance.

I have a similar question .

I have a 3 tb Buffalo network storage unit on the same network as my server.

How do I add it to my system? At this point Amahi doesn't see it. I assume that if Fedora can see and access it, amahi would as well.

What is the best way to do that?

Thanks in advance

Yes, I have thanks.

I will try it in the morning.

However, in the below, where is the NAS's name or share name?

//server/share /var/hda/files/music cifs credentials=/root
/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0

The instructions indicate you will need to check what the NAS name will be. It provides a command to run. You then replace ////server/share with the NAS name and share.
