Sharing folder from one NAS to another NAS on same LAN

Post by scarng »

I have a TS-253D as my main NAS and a TS-251+ as my secondary.

I set up Plex on the TS-253D as my main media server and then mounted the TS-251+ as my music library. The other day the Music library was no longer mounted. It works when I issue this command via a SSH session:

Code: Select all

mount.cifs //172.16.0.15/Multimedia/Music /share/Multimedia/Music -o rw
The problem is every few weeks or I suspect after each firmware update I lose the mount. How do I share a folder from one NAS to another NAS on the same LAN, permanently?

How to select the NAS that has the music folder from the NAS that is the plex? I can't figure that out.

In filestation, click on "remote mount" (top right) and then go through the CIFS/SMB mount of the Hybridmount popup, pretty much self explanatory

[SOLVED] Using Filestation 5 - I had to install Hybrid Mount. But I created the mount and PLEX is not indexing the remote folder. Sweet, Thanks.
