I just realized that I can simply use the already present samba share. If I mount it using samba, I can select squeezeboxserver as user for that mount. And it seems to be working. Is using Samba a bad idea? I think I need this anyway to access the NAS share on Windows. QLMS 8.3@2.21 x64 (digi

As I didn't want to wait any longer for the NUC11 to become available (again) and also didn't want to pay these ridiculously high prices for the NUC10, I finally got my hands on a fairly priced and reasonably recent NUC i3 (8th Gen) with 8GB of RAM. The plan is to run the latest Ubuntu LTS (20.4)

Clear Linux is a super optimised / high performance system but it is not really aimed at end users, so I would not recommend for your use case. I would agree with @jd68, go for a well-known distribution like Ubuntu or Debian that have server versions, a large community and vast choice of software
