A massive thank you.
I was giving up on my NetworkSpace, then I found this site.
With some trepidation, and a backup of the current data, I embarked on rebuilding the NAS with the 10.1 firmware. Upgraded it to 12.1 and I have to say this is so, so superb.
I am now in the process of decommissing my Ubuntu Server, which I was configuring to replace the Networkspace, cause this firmware does exactly what I want it to do. I have even managed to move my networked printer to it.
Keep up the good work.
:thinking Mmmmm! I wonder what's the next thing to tackle (owncloud?)
