remote access to NAS in same network

[pucciclaudio]

Hi,

I would like to access a NAS (WD My Cloud) from work via the Amahi VPN (IPsec). The NAS is in the same network as my HDA. VPN works, I can access my shares on Amahi. WD provides an interface to access it from outside but it is very limited in functionalities (cannot set up a dropbox, for instance).

Please help me orientate, I have no idea from where to start doing this.

Thanks,

Have you tried creating a share and point it to the NAS drive? That would make it easily accessible.

thanks.

what should I put in the location field? by default it creates it locally (/var/hda/files/"share name")

The path for the NAS drive.

sorry I meant how do I specify the path, I only know the IP address.

Thanks

If this is not connected to the HDA, you will need to mount it as a drive. Then once done, you can add the path to the share you built.

The sharing to NAS guidance in the wiki may help.
