Very NEW to NAS4Free
I had a look a freeNAS and there was a SIMPLE pbi for installing a JAIL

Is there an idiot guide to setting up a JAIL on NAS4Free?
as I'm very NEW to this and I've looked around and stuck at where to start

please be patient with me
thanks
Chris

yes, only 3 commands, described here: viewtopic.php?f=79&t=3894

I think I'm getting there
THANKS for the direct to thread. HELPED me loads so far >

just so I know I got this right.
1. I got a 80gb hard drive which I have create /Pool2
2. I create dataset JAIL
3. advanced/command execute:
> fetch -o /tmp/thebrig_install.sh https://github.com/fsbruva/thebrig/raw/ ... install.sh
> chmod a+x /tmp/thebrig_install.sh
> /bin/sh /tmp/thebrig_install.sh /mnt/Pool2/JAIL


SET & query
download tarballs (funny name
but only base & doc & src ???
NO lib32
Is that correct ?

Sorry for being pain & I do appreciate your guidance
Thanks
Chris

Right all looking good got THEBRIG set up.
now how to create jail for
minidnla (as I have seen you recommend this over fuppes)

the IP address cannot be the same as your Nas4Free!!! It also cannot be in the DHCP scope for your network, either.
I understand different IP
IP of NAS4free Is 192.168.1.104
what Ip for minidnla (JAIL)
can I use 192.168.1.103 ???

Also what other things do you recommend setting up as new to NAS4free & lovin It.
Has stopped me wasting my time on facebook & learning loads with help from you guys here.
THanks

HELP !!!
PLEASE

I'm so confused
wanna set up something on my NAS4Free Box, so i can stream my films/tv_episodes/music to my iPhone/iPad when I'm away from my Home Network.
Be able to access films/tv_episodes/music over the internet.
whats the best FREE option & how do I set It up.
what settings do I need to in TheBrig|Jail|Add
Are the defaults OK?



Done them settings
and saved.



Does this look right & send me to next part please. so wanna get this up and running for my son.
he thinks his mum is well clever LOL

as you can see your jail is up and running.

only need to add info to your fstab to mount your video / photo folder inside the jail. see: viewtopic.php?f=79&t=3894#p20142

DLNA is desing to work only in LAN not in WAN so fuppes or minidlna do not works as you expected.

Try serviio, not only have a UpNp server ( that do not work to send over internet your photos), but have a embeded ( and pay) system to serve videos and photos over internet ( you need to register serviio to use this feature).
serviio is simmilar to plex if you know it (actually there are no howto install on N4F) but there are a promise thread on Plex Forums: http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/top ... r-freebsd/

You can also consider to install owncloud to acces your multimedia content over Internet ( I personaly use owncloud to show to my family , my private photos), you can use in a simmilar way, and have a embeded multimedia module to stream your Videos.

example

Thanks raulfg3 for all your help and advise.
tried the example link and took ages to load picture down the screen. might be my connection
Is servio expensive? and is it easy to install and configurate?

Thanks again

no, it's mine , I only have 1M download and 256k upload

yes, but you need to compile from ports ( no difficult, but different from install from packages)
