Thanks all for the suggestions re moving away from Windows Server (I am
still experiencing the same old problem). It seems my options are:

1. Keep using my old WHS box, even though WHS v1 is out of support, if
it's only running LMS then the risk is very low (as others have said
I've found LMS to run flawlessly on WHS)
2. Install a Linux VM under W2012 Server and run LMS on that

Right - deep breath - I have little Linux experience so what's the
easiest, least painful way of getting a) a suitable Linux environment up
and running and then, b) installing/running LMS under it?

(sorry, I know this isnt really a 3rd Party Plugin / BBC iPlayer
question, but if I post it out of the blue elsewhere then the context
will be lost).

My MP3 files reside on a NAS (Lenovo ix2, inherited from work place) on
the same LAN so I'll need to be able to access network shares/map disc
drives/whatever the Linux equivalent terminology is. Other than that I
cant think of any non-standard things that will be involved (other than
running it under a W2012 Server VM but I've some prior experience of
that so dont expect that to be an issue).

Thanks again and please forgive my numpty Linux questions.

Jerry
