Nice one - I get that problem normally after 6 whiskeys!

Thanks for the help on the FreeNas stuff. I am currently experimenting
with a Synology box. I will also be setting up two other file servers,
one with a Debian and headless and the second with FreeNAS and
headless. I'll let you know how I get on!

So over to the Synology box. First off installation is very easy and I
can see why folks would want to use something like this. Plug in,
access the box and press go. Installation and set up a breeze!

First problem! How do I connect to it from outside? I have a static ip
address and would like to forward this address through my Netgear
NG834G to the said Synology. Any ideas how I do this please?

Thanks.
