Hi ukmagic,
Thanks for the tips. They look vaguely familiar, but I'll give it another try over the next couple of days and report back. Spiceworks looks like a comprehensive app, and I was somewhat dismayed it didn't work for me first time around. But I'm not above calling it "idiot-error" lol.
I'm assuming you have the SNMP add-on installed on the NAS? or are you using one that has SNMP functionality already enabled?
[EDIT:] I'm only an amature techie / enthusiast, but have been in computers for about 15 years. I have 4 systems of my own, and also do support for family & freinds. Spiceworks looked like the kind of thing I was looking for to keep an eye on the entire network when everything's powered on (see my sig). So if I can get this working, it'll be a real boon for me.
