Your NAS has no money in this, it will think you are accessing it locally. Probably the only limitation is that with some routers the automatic server discovery doesn't work so once you lose contact to the server you might have to configure it manually in iPeng (with it's local IP, the remote one is not needed but can be used instead). Usually (unless you use a dynamic IP for the server), iPeng just doesn't even notice the change since it keeps seeing the server on the same IP address and it always tries to reconnect there first. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
