Great. Quick correction -- it's the client that needs the nas-bin package:

If you want to play music on "frodo" and listen to it on "gandalf",

   *  on gandalf (the NAS server),
               - apt-get install nas nas-doc
               - nasd -aa &
   *  on frodo (the NAS client),
               - export AUDIOSERVER="gandalf:0"
               - apt-get install nas-bin
               - auplay <some wav file> (to test)
               - apt-get install alsaplayer-nas
               - alsaplayer -o nas

I guess it would be an improvement if the packages were renamed to
nas-server and nas-client.

Now what about the permissions if we run this as a daemon?

Cheers,
Dave
