Please help me understand setting up Media Server
rec head:
Are you talking about MC's Library that is the database of your files or are you using "library" to mean all the media files?
Best practice is to have the MC Library on the computer itself and I believe this is the default. Where the media files are located doesn't matter as long as your network is fast enough. Most networks are.

rec head,
We're on the same page. My media files are located on my NAS.
My question was about the MC Library database file specifically.
macdonjh:
I finally took a few minutes and set up Media Server. I haven't really tried it yet, but I think it's working properly. Thank you everyone for your help.
macdonjh:
I'm a bit frustrated: my Media Server client computer has lost connection, and been unable to re-establish connection, twice in the past couple of weeks. Obviously, I was able to get the connection back at least once, but I can't do that now. Can you help me troubleshoot?
I don't think it's a problem with either my client computer or my network hardware. I'm using my client computer to surf the internet and make this post, our router handles both local network and internet traffic, and I can use a MC Library saved locally on my client computer to listen to files saved on my NAS.
Is there something I need to do with my Host computer?
JimH:
Is the server going to sleep?
