Hello, I've been looking around the net to see if I can find an answer
to my problem and this thread is as close to my problem as I can find!
Now hear is my problem.... I run Server 2003 and LMS as a Service which
worked just fine until I moved the Physical machine onto a QNAP NAS box
as a Virtual machine. Everything works fine apart from LMS which has to
run at Login rather than as a Service. Now I'm familiar with running LMS
as a Service but it just fails to work for me! The NAS has a user lets
say called Paul with a password "Fred" On the virtual machine I've
mapped a drive to where the music is using the user name Paul and
password Fred which works just fine. I've also set the LMS service to
use the same username and password and hear things go a little odd. In
LMS Control Panel I can see the Computer under the tab Library if I use
the "Add" button but if I select the drive mapping it will not retain it
nor will it show it in Settings using Internet Explorer to control LMS.
So I have to login to the Server and let it start-up from there. I've
been a LMS user since the days of Slimdevices and have moved the LMS
software and updated it from one platfor to another but this one has me
stumped - so if anyone would be kind enough to shed so light on my
problem I would be very grateful.

Many thanks, Paul
