Hello,
I have heard a lot about FreeNAS lately and was wondering how to set it up for my home music server. I have the following laptop which I want to turn into local music server in my home:
Intel B815 1.68 Ghz
Intel HD Graphics GT1
4 GB DDR3 of RAM
500GB HDD
Now I have many questions about this because I just started with it. I have downloaded FreeNAS x64 but how do I set up music server ? I want to have music files on my laptop with FreeNAS on it and create one account for adding songs (admin account) and one account for multiple users (read only) which can use it to log into web interface and do the following things:
1) Listen to music without downloading it
2) Download MP3 file if they wan to.
P.S I don't care about backup because I already have one and I will only store songs on that server so I guess I don't need as much as 8GB of RAM do I ? Is the FreeNAS exposed to Internet by default ?, because I just want it to work only in my network, not outside of it.
P.S I'm very familiar with Linux but I'm new to the whole FreeNAS thing.
Any help, ideas or tutorials how I can setup something like this ?
Thank You.
