Hi all,
Quick question:
Before, I had posted that my WinXP installed Slimserver 6.0b1 reads dotfiles in the music library, placed there from Macs which read the directory via Samba. (These dotfiles are named identically to the .mp3 files, but with a dot in front of the name, which is why the Slimserver scans them. These files store view information for the Macs that read the directory.)
Slimserver, when run on Unix, ignores dotfiles. It seems to specifically check to see if it's running on Windows to decide what to ignore, and then reads the dotfiles inappropriately. I have checked the preferences to see if there's any way to include a file pattern to ignore, but that doesn't seem to be there.
Would it be possible to change this to tell Slimserver to ignore dotfiles anyway? The problem is, Slimserver displays these dotfiles on the playlist (strangely), and if you select a playlist that includes one of these phantoms, the slimserver exits rather ungracefully.
Any info would be appreciated.. otherwise it really is impossible for the Slimserver to run on WinXP in my installation.
Thanks!
