Hey,

Since my LaCie 5 Big has crashed, i installed a new NAS Synology ds218+ (2 x 4 TB).

The back up from my music has been transferred to the NAS.

When i’m trying to connect Sonos to my music library i get this pop up window from Sonos:

Sonos can't add the music folder.
Make sure the path, username and password are correct.
Reason: An issue has occurred when adding the new music in the shared folder \xxxxx\Music\Music LaCie 5Big 10TB - Back Up to the Sonos system. Please see the following link for more information:

Who can help me?

Have you enabled SMBv1 on the new NAS?

OK, I hear you but surely it is no great shakes to enable https so a NAS can be connected with confidence?

Not entirely clear what you mean by “enable https” in this case. Usually when anyone says “surely it is no great shakes to...” they are not software engineers with experience in that space.

Back to https, it’s only a webpage after all that can surely be accessed and a library built. I’m very interested to hear why this cannot be the case. Other platforms can!

Please point me to a platform that supports file shares over https via some standard protocol.

The replies I have seem appear to be gobbledygook. They do not relate to my issues.

Well as I can find no post from you describing your issues, this is not totally surprising.
