You can do it with a pc, and depending on the application, setting up a pc is likely easier and definitely more flexible than a NAS (and this is coming from someone happily running SC7 on a LinkStation...). Just boot the pc, attach it to the network (just like the other PCs on the network), turn on file sharing, and leave the pc on. > So there is an enormous amount of information but none of it is tied > together and some of it is contradictory.

This is a pretty good start: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?SlimServer In the end, I think your quest for NAS-based Squeezecenter is at odds with your plea for a "user-friendly" Squeezecenter. It's not impossible, but I doubt it would make everyone happy either. I'm glad SD is looking into it, but I have to imagine they feel a bit chastened from their earlier venture into NAS partners (the $1500 Infrant). -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43198 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
