Hi Ben I was sneaky, I moved the weewx directories to the NAS and then created the symbolic link in the place of it. I am lucky in that I have a production system on 4.10.0 whilst I build my 5.0.2 system. It is really important to get the permissions right otherwise it will be a disaster...!

I am doing something similar using my NAS. I have mounted the NAS and then created symbolic links to the appropriately named folders or directories on the NAS. When mounting the NAS, I needed to make sure that the permissions were correct for weewx which was eventually quite simple to achieve.
