Direct Web Access from hosted websites

If you want to create a web site and use similar code to src=" http://www.example.com/image.gif" in which the gif file is located on MBL, well it should be possible, but not easily. Also be aware, depending on the option you select, it might void your warranty.

First, these NAS devices have Debian Lenny distribution, so LOTS of options out there. However, due to it, Linux experience and/or willingness to learn/research/test/etc is necessary.  In a nutshell, this would be necessary:

  • Access MBL via SSH

  • Create a web server/site, add your content

  • Access from the internet such as port forwarding and DDNS

If still interested, do the above steps one at a time, baby steps.

and last, I am not a Linux expert nor I have ever done this!!!   

I can, however, point you to a place with lots of info:
