LMS on latest ReadyNAS products?
Just found out about the new ReadyNAS product line. First question that came to mind is: is Logitech Media Server (LMS) still supported on this platform? I currently am very happy with my NVX but I ...
I've been running LMS 7.8 on a Wandboard for many months, using ReadyNAS Pro as a file server. Although it's not as responsive as LMS native on a ReadyNAS Pro, it is tolerable. It demonstrates a 10W singleboard can host LMS and still use latest ReadyNAS products (which is the point of this thread). Here are my setup notes (this assumes a share called "media" on readynas contains music):
Create "mediaro" user (or desired username) on ReadyNAS device, with appropriate permissions and group memberships. I chose a read-only setup. This example assumes ReadyNAS hostname is "rnas". Login to Wandboard (via ssh):
> sudo mkdir /media
> sudo mount -t cifs //rnas/media /media
> ls -l /media/Music | head
> sudo nano /etc/fstab
Add this line in the CIFS section (match username from ReadyNAS):
//rnas/media /media cifs ro,user=mediaro,pass=<password>,auto 0 0
Substitute "<password>" to match password for username on ReadyNAS.
