This is confusing. I am using windows networking and mapping drives. No FTP. it's simply a program accessing a share. FTP is off.

I am not sure what you mean by not handling long filenames. It handles long filenames just fine. I would say that 90% of the 280Gigs worth of music has filenames longer than 8 characters, many with filenames much longer.



At this point I've given up. I'll probably keep the snap around for backup, but it's useless in production. I may checkout FreeNAS in the future. It's just not worth the time and hassle anymore.

I hope the testing I did helps someone.

oidar.

So long and thanks for all the fish.
