Re: [slim] Scanning For Music On Slimserver
Success! Thanks, your answer pointed me sufficiently. For those of you trying to figure this out in the future, here is what I did. 1. I openned Windows Explorer. Under My Computer my NAS drive showed up in 2 places - one was as my K: drive, the other under My Network Places as Volume_1 on DNS-323 (Dlink-eec391). The second of these held the key. 2. Looking at the properties on the entry under My Network Places, I saw Target: \\DLINK-EEC391\Volume_1 3. I then tried \\DLINK-EEC391\Volume_1\My Ripped CDs in the music location section in the SlimServer setup software (My Ripped CDs being the directory right off the root directory of my NAS where everything is). This did NOT work!! 4. Thinking I had to be close, I tried again taking out Volume_1, so my entry was simply \\DLINK-EEC391\My Ripped CDs. Worked like a charm. I hope this helps others with the same problem.

Re: [slim] Scanning For Music On Slimserver
I'm assuming that you don't want to fill in the box on Slimserver that tells it where your music is stored. If this is the case then it will never scan. I suspect browse by directory would also fail. At the moment you have a Slimserver with no music and a NAS with music stored on it. I recommend that you connect the two by telling the Slimserver where your music is stored. Or am I missing something here? -- Zaragon Zaragon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14577 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43468 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Scanning For Music On Slimserver
Now that I've seen your other message in another thread I see that the problem you are having is determining what the directory information should be. I don't know the TS-109 but usually a format of \\servername\directory\ will work. This UNC format should be the same for every box on the network. Servername would be the name by which your TS-109 is known on the network and directory is the way you navigate down from the first directory you get to on the TS-109 until you hit the head of the music directory tree. eg \\TS-109\music or \\MyNAS\Music\MyMusic\ etc -- Zaragon Zaragon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14577 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43468 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Scanning For Music On Slimserver
Do you have any permissions set on the NAS? Perhaps they are restricting access and preventing slimserver from accessing it. Do you have slimserver set up to run as a service? You can see what this is set to by right clicking on the tray icon. Try changing it to the other setting and see what happens. -- maggior maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43468 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Scanning For Music On Slimserver
If you don't have a local DNS resolver the using the IP address is the right way to go. Make sure that the TS IP address is consistant, either statically assigned or reserved in the DHCP server. Whilst the UNC path ought to be the same to access the music from the network as from the TS itself I could envisage problems if the TS turns the call around within itself rather than using the network stack. A couple of things to try. Save a shortcut to the TS music folder on your windows desktop then look at it's properties to see the UNC. If that doesn't work then start a cmd box (start-run type cmd and OK). Use a command: net view \\192.168.x.x This should give you a run down of all the network visible directories on the TS just in case they are different to what you see in windows. If that doesn't help then you will probably need to gain a terminal access to the TS to check permissions of the unix path to the music files. Unfortunately I can't help you in that respect as I've never had a TS. Another thought occurs. If you have created accounts for users on the TS into which they can store their own personal files then you will probably need to give the music directory structure access for the guest user ie one that logs in with no credentials. An alternative is to grant access to the account under which the Slimserver is running on the TS platform. -- Zaragon Zaragon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14577 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43468 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
