Flamenco needs some form of shared storage: a place for files to be stored that can be accessed by all the computers in the farm.

TODO: lots of tricky stuff about getting symlinks to work on Windows. We may want to get inspiration from the Git-for-Windows documentation.
Linux
For symlinks to work with CIFS/Samba filesystems (like a typical NAS), you need
to mount it with the option mfsymlinks. As a concrete example, for a user
sybren, put something like this in fstab:
//NAS/flamenco /media/flamenco cifs mfsymlinks,credentials=/home/sybren/.smbcredentials,uid=sybren,gid=users 0 0
Then put the NAS credentials in /home/sybren/.smbcredentials:
username=sybren
password=g1mm3acce55plz
and be sure to protect it with chmod 600 /home/sybren/.smbcredentials.
Finally mkdir /media/flamenco and sudo mount /media/flamenco should get things mounted.
The above info was obtained from Ask Ubuntu.
