Just in case it helps anyone else...
I've been migrating away from a Vortexbox based solution to PcP with LMS
and my music files on a home-built NAS.
The NAS software is TrueNAS (was FreeNAS) and it uses ZFS as the
filesystem.
Couldn't get PcP to mount the TrueNAS Samba share until I installed

Having cifs-utils installed is no big deal. There is no daemon running
because of it. The only thing is that there are quite a few

What is the configuration of your router. Is it open (no password) or
is there a username and password configured. The manual is a bit vague
as to authentication options.
A few things to try.
1) If there is no password to access, try putting a "1" in both the
username and password field.

Have you tried either
Music
or
Media
as the Share name
and do you fill in the username and password ?

by the way when I use the LMS in volumio, I can see the path it mounts
which is something like /mnt/NAS/MyName/Media .. which is quite strange
to me: name is the name I gave the disk when I formatted it with the
Mac.. and Media is the subfolder
Does your Volumio installation show the command that it used to mount
the remote drive?

Hi, I'm completely new to Linux, PicorePlayer and LMS
I just installed my first Raspberry Pi and tried to configure PiCore

have a portable 4TB USB drive
I know, that's just an example for the screenshot. I did enable it and

Once the mount is working you then navigate into the subfolder via the
LMS web interface not the pCP one.
Just go into LMS/settings and it should ask for the music location.
