Hi,

This is more of a freenas question than a syncthing question, so perhaps better suited for a freenas forum.

You can try searching the forum to see if there were prior threads about this, or perhaps google has something, but personally I don’t think I even know what a freenas is.

Ok.

Thanks for your response.

FreeNAS is Open Source Network Attached Storage.

Open Source Network Attached Storage

What is FreeNAS? FreeNAS is a Free and Open Source Network Attached Storage (NAS) software appliance. This means that you can use FreeNAS to share data over file-based sharing protocols, including CIFS for Windows users, NFS for Unix-like operating systems, and AFP for Mac OS X users.
