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.

    Testing things, yep, everything is working and I'm able to load new video files onto the NAS at ~1.7 Gb/s using my 2.5Gb/s connection; Jellyfin is working fine, I can access things from my phone or PC. We are good to gooooo! Thank you so very much for all your help, you really didn't have to go through all this. <3

      damn I'm a little jealous of that 2.5Gb/s lol. I never bothered with anything past GbE

      I used to have fiber but new place is dogshit cable

        Yeah, it's pretty nice. I built a new rig because I was still on a 4th gen Intel and a GTX 960, and I wired up my home with cat6 on the cheap. My new MB has 2.5 built in so I bought a cheap PCIe 2.5gb card for the server and it rips. It comes in handy for loading a whole season of a tv show onto the server, but everything else in my network has gigabit.
