Ok, so I really am nearly there!
I've gone from only a few weeks ago, having a Freenas box that simply held my movie collection and my music via Plex, needing no interaction from me. Just the idea of opening a shell, adding a user or even talking about permissions terrified me...
To today, where I have a fully automated Home entertainment system, using Plex, Sick rage, Couch Potato, Headphones, Mylar and BTSync. I have a stack of CIFS shares. I take regular snapshots of my jails and weekly backups of my datasets. I've learnt how to SSH in and I have a VPN set up.
I only have one or two minor problems remaining
The first one is a permissions issue related to my Mylar plugin. Mylar has a user:group of media:media (UID 816) I access the comics Mylar manages from a windows machine, therefore I have added a user in Freenas that matches my Windows 8.1 login. The username is Richard and I have set the group to media, the same as my Mylar plugin.
Everything works fine apart from the fact, Mylar cannot delete anything I create via the CIFS share and I cannot delete anything Mylar creates
Could someone nudge me in the right direction?
