I agree with Paulie here, that is why I run all of my BBS' in seperate VM's All on their own separate VLan which can not access my main Lan but my main Lan can access the VLan. If you want to put it on a NAS, I suggest using a VM to do so, I know Synology offers Virtual Machine support, or Docker. This way you can access your BBS' via your NAS but the BBS will not be accessing your NAS, I used to store my Message Bases, and File Bases on my NAS I still have my File bases on it. Only thing is i Idon't give it anything else but a shared directory..
