Setting up SABNZB folder to network share on Leopard

Post by Mock »

im new to OSX and dont know if this is possible but i tried setting example. the NZB scan folder to a samba share like this SMB://cubestation/public/nzb but it seems that it just makes a folder local on my mac mini with that name. Is it possible to direct some of the folders to a samba share?

I'm not sure about mac but the standard url for samba shares is this
\\serveraddress\folder\subfolder

Hi,

I might be able to help.

Now I am assuming that you can connect to your File Server "Cubestation" ok and that you just want to scan the folder /public/nzb within it?

Then your scan path should be: /Volumes/public/nzb

That's assuming you connect to "Cubestation" and mount the share "public"
