SONOS S1, Synology DSM7 and music library

Is this any help?  It needs a little technical know how.

If it does work, you’re effectively lowering the security of the NAS to the level that Sonos S1 systems need.

 Use at your own risk.

Thanks MoPac, I did enable SMB1 and NTLMv1 with no luck. 

Thanks SJW, A bit over my head, but I’ll read up on using putty and see how far I get. Appreciate this. I don’t love the idea of compromising the Synology system, but the only real alternative is to find a new streaming system to replace the SONOS.

You could add an SMB gateway to re-share your NAS over an SMB v1 share, that requires no changes to your NAS and you can limit the gateway's connectivity to minimize the SMB v1 risks.

Which speakers are you running? Why are you restricted to running S1?

Bruce, I was an early early adopter :). I still have 4 zones of ZP80, 100 and old play 5. All still work perfectly other than this issue so if I was to replace them all, it would probably be with a less expensive platform before I dropped a couple thousand on new Sonos for the only purpose of getting a NAS library that worked a week ago to work agian. Considering how popular SONOS AND Synology are, I’m surprised this isnt more common.  Maybe I’m the only one running older SONOS.

Stanley, thanks for this info. A rather inexpensive alternative, though I’ve never played around with a Pi before, I’ll look into it. It’s starting to feel like these older units are being left so behind by SONOS that it may be time to look for a new streaming option.

I don’t think you are, but wanted to be certain why you were running S1 before making a subsequent suggestion just to move to S2…and there are many still out there that don’t understand that they can, although you clearly can’t. 

It is unfortunate that electronics ‘age’. The RAM/CPU in the older Sonos products just isn’t large or fast enough to handle the requirements for an updated Linux kernel that can handle other versions of SMB, and Synology has chosen (somewhat prudently, IMHO, but frustratingly for people like you) to remove access to SMB v1 in their latest software stack. A conundrum, to be certain. Not helped, I’m sure, by lawyers concerned about lawsuits. 

I suspect ​@Stanley_4 ‘s solution might be the best for you, although I’ll admit it seems daunting, at first glance, but inexpensive. And I have faith that his reference materials are good enough for semi-competent people like me to muddle through, it shouldn’t be overly complicated for someone like you. 
 

Edit: I don’t hate all lawyers, I’ve worked with many fine ones in my software development history…but there are varying types, as in all other walks of life ;)
