I'm using a Netgear SC101.
From your info above I'll try using the NAS's drive IP address and share name.

What I'm really striving for is a way to access photos from the NAS using the 770's Image reader and selecting the NAS drive from that menu. I'm guessing the FTP / NAS arrangement that you have described above is for file transfer. If this is the case, then I would have to load the photo from the directory in which I stored it. Is this correct or am I missing something here.

Thanks for taking the time to reply!

Afraid that, as far as I know, that is the case. However, having said that, there are some pretty brilliant people around this place who maybe have a better or more technical solution....

I use GNUmp3 on my linux server. Open up a port and I can browse through my music collection and stream tracks from anywhere. Makes for interesting phone bills though.

Looks interesting. Thanks for the tip !

Since gaining access to my NAS via FTP ( Thanks Gadget1974 for the tip) I have been able to create a work around to quickly display photos via HTML. I used a freeware program called FotosOnWeb to quickly generate a index page of my photos. After clicking on any of the photos on the Index page I can then use the built in web pages commands such as prev, next first, last, index. This now allows me to quickly view my photos remotely without having to place them on a memory card.

rythmbox on both linuxes should also do the trick nicely using library sharing. Or itunes on the comp and rythmbox on the 770. I think it's a smoother solution for mp3 listening needs than file sharing per se.
