Jun 8, 2012 9:18 AM in response to Egytalianby Peter Glock,★HelpfulJust about any package you can install on the client version of Lion can be installed on the server. If you want to compile your own versions then download the developer tools from apple and install fink or macports.
What do you want to use the packages for?
As for the nas, you could use it in two ways:
1. Connect via nfs and use root mapping so that Lion server can handle all permissions
2. Dedicate a share on the nas for your webserver files and mount it on the Lion server.
If you could give more details of what you want to achieve then I'm sure the community will be able to help.

Jun 8, 2012 9:26 AM in response to Peter Glockby Egytalian,Thanks for your response. I really appreciate it.
Here is the situation:
I have a qnap nas and I was trying to run script called clip bucket, however it requires ffmpeg flvtool2 mp4box and pho cli, I installed this on the nas but it doesn't seem to work it should convert videos as it uploads kinda like YouTube.
What I want to achieve is get the lion server on Mac mini and install all these requirements so I could host my website on it, and use the nas as a storage as it has about 16TB space.
I hope I explained it better.
Thank you.

$ sudo gem install flvtool2

Oct 29, 2013 1:54 AM in response to MacSter2008by MacSter2008,MP4Box was easy too. Pre-compiled worked on Lion Server 10.8.x
download here.

Uncompress and drop it into your /bin folder on your startup drive.
ffmpeg took a bunch of work from a website with 2 or 3 typos in the code, with lots of pre-requisits.
So you have to learn that and google it yourself.
