Stupid question: the paths Digikam searches are available? E.g. you can follow 
that same path in a file manager or a konsole and actually see the files there 
with the /exact/ same path?

If you or Digikam don't have permission to read the image files, or one of the 
directories in the path, the files will be unreadable or even invisible. And 
depending on how you configure your NAS, that's fairly easy to do (or if you 
forgot to  mount the NFS directories on the client system... been there, done 
that).

Same effect if you have e.g. lowercase in the expected paths and uppercase in 
the real paths.
