this is a copy and paste from some website comments.
This worked for me. Plus make sure you have upnp allowed in your firewall (router)

Here is what I did in FreeNAS:
Enabled UPnP
Use xbox 360 profile
Add the various directories I want to share
Enabled the web user interface

In the web user interface I did the following:
From the options page, rebuild the database

From FreeNAS diagnostics page:
Check UPnP logs, make sure that you see the rebuild completed (takes a while depending on size of shares)

In the web user interface I did the following:
From the options page, rebuild the virtual container

From FreeNAS diagnostics page:
Check UPnP logs, make sure that you see the virtual container rebuild completed (takes a while depending on size of shares)

Finally In the web user interface I did the following:
From the configuration page I added the IP address of my xbox 360 (at the bottom, submit query)

Hope this helps
