Y'all are trans, and I know how much you trans Zoomers code (no idea if that's a Linux thing or not tho), so I thought I might try Hexbear for some tech help. I'm fried, I've watched so damn many tutorials and read so many threads on this but I can't seem to work it out. I barely know a few basic commands in the console, and the alphabet soup of different directories, programs, and the very language that's used to discuss Linux is too much for me to process. I've learned a lot, but I need some help.

I've built a pretty nice server that's not doing much right now besides NAS storage. I'm running a TrueNAS scale VM on Proxmox, I'm filling it up with all my pirate booty, and I want to watch it through Jellyfin, which I have installed to an LXC container (unprivileged for security, tried it both ways and I can't get it). The problem is, how do I get jelly to see the NAS drive? I don't know how to map it one way or another. I'm running the storage through an HBA in ZFS mirror with an SMB data set that I can see just fine and access in Windows, but jelly seems to just be stuck in it's own little world.

I've seen things about creating users within jelly, which I tried, and it just tells me that the user I supposedly created with SMB credentials doesn't exist. Tried using the GUI to find the NAS via IP, no dice. I'm fucking tired, I've been at it for a week or so now, I just want to watch a movie this weekend.

    Okay, no dice and no registry of any hits on the NAS for adding slashes. I fiddled around with some credential settings in TrueNAS because one of the error messages said this:

    Show

    So I noticed it said 'multiple users with same credentials' so I made a new user for my phone specifically and switched my phone's login to that user, it works fine. I tried my user from my desktop and nothing still. I just tells me I might not have permissions and prompts for a password. For a brief second I was able to log in as root from windows and I saw the media drive, but when I clicked on the folder it prompted me for credentials again and I can't log back in as root again...

    I'm not sure the link you shared is it, I'll poke around with it though.
