I'm guessing it's something like 192.168.0.1, it should be the internal IP of the ADSL router. Also make sure the NAS is configured with the correct DNS servers.
If you have DHCP enabled on the router and the NAS, all this should happen automatically, if you don't you will need to configure them manually. audiomuze;504479 Wrote: > > Agreed, there's nothing in it in performance terms, but it was a simple > way of keeping my music network from being Internet facing. > I assume there is some kind of firewall in the ADSL router that will handle this protection. The router will make sure no one can access your music server unless you have explicitly configured the router to open ports towards the music server. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73714 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
