Just wanted to thank knnniggett, your fix worked perfectly for me (after hours of messing!)

Thank you

Well I thought it was working but the percentage is totally wrong and looks like its still writing locally.

Not getting any errors, ive created a folder on the NAS and can see it when navigating to /var/cache/zoneminder in linux....

Any ideas?
