I use NSLU2 as NAS for my music files. There are probably a number of ways to do this but this is what I did: Using Putty: Make sure that you have network access by pinging your NAS. You also need a samba client although I think CC already has this, if not use apt-get to download and install. create a directory to mount the NAS folder: mkdir /mnt/nas (call it what u like) mount -t smbfs -o guest,rw //192.168.x.x(your NAS IP)/urnetdrivename /mnt/nas Test with: ls -l /mnt/nas should list the contents of the NAS drive. To auto mount at bootup add the following line to /etc/fstab: //192.168.x.x(your NAS IP)/urnetdrivename /mnt/nas smbfs 0 0 On the SS web interface, server settings, basic settings, enter the Music folder eg /mnt/nas/Music and Playlist folder eg /mnt/nas/Playlists.
