I'm trying to set up a RPi Content Server to manage the pile of books on my FreeNAS server. Currently the family uses Calibre on macOS or Windows but I was hoping to have just a single content server to which all the family devices (Kindle, phones, Ipad, whatever) could get books from.
Having said that and started to install RPi Calibre, I'm now looking for a way to get Calibre to look outside the RPi for its 'new' database. I want it to use the one on the FreeNAS, so as not to duplicate the books and lose the resilience of the NAS, but I can't find a way to get RPi Calibre to use a symlink or to look outside the SD card. Have I missed an obvious post that says either how to do it or destroys my hopes?

thanks,
