Apparently not on the RPi 3.39.1 version, which is what I got as the latest thing. It's odd, as the RPi file manager can get to the SMB share and display the files, including all the metadb files but Calibre can't. Taking the pacmanfm file path from the display and pasting it into Calibre 'Choose location for library' popup gets the 'Directory not found' error. Doesn't look like RPi as the manager for the library is a goer. TrueNAS is built on FreeBSD, so that's not going anywhere with Calibre. Mayhap a Windows VM running on the TrueNAS....

Thanks for your help, I'll give this one up.
