VirtualHere and FreeNAS

Hi all,

I'm slowly in the process of migrating from my Lenovo NAS to FreeNAS and I just noticed that there is no direct VirtualHere server build for FreeNAS. Using the Linux Server info (found here: https://virtualhere.com/usb_server_software) I can get up to step 3 (sudo ./vhusbdx86_64 -b), but I get the error "Sorry, user root is not allowed to execute './vhusbdx86_64 -b' as root on freenas.local." (freenas is what I'm using as the name for my NAS in the interim).

I'm not sure what to do here as I would have thought that user "root" would have the correct privileges for this. FreeNAS is built on FreeBSD; I'm unsure of the differences between this and Linux but the general command line seems pretty similar - I have basic knowledge of Linux.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Actually freeNAS is built on FreeBSD which is completely different to Linux. The virtualhere server wont run on FreeNAS

Bummer! Thanks for the update. Quite happy to run a Pi alongside it so I'll just do that.

I don't suppose you're planning a FreeNAS build in the future though?

Cheers!
