Hi Jim.

I would think that using iSCSI would bypass the CFileService issue and not require any additional server license to access files on the iSCSI volume. (Not that I'm looking to cheat you out of a product license sale, but that product can not actually run on the NAS, so no harm no foul, right?)

A mounted iSCSI volume on the server is treated as a local volume, not a network drive. In Disk Management, it appears just as an additional volume with space to allocate, and is controlled by the server itself and whatever services are running on the server.

I will be setting up a new system within the next month and I can test this out. I figured that, by now, somebody would've beat me to it.
