I know i can set the version of a Jail backwards, but I think i will need to build the OHNet libraries, is this true? I'm not to afraid to do library builds, but i am a bit rusty (although seeing a Make files makes long for an earlier life). Is the library the only pitfall i might run into? I would think setting up the Jail, installing the Minim2 server would be fairly straight forward. so I think this library may be my only issue.

Hello Sean,

I still use MinimServer 0.8.5.2 update 134 (this is the older release) on my FreeNAS (current stable release) on a daily basis and it works fine. You don't have to compile the libraries yourself, as I did that already and I provide them in this thread. Just follow the instruction and you should be set to go.

Regarding the newer MinimServer version, I didn't have time yet to look into that and try that out properly.

Cheers,
airflow
