This is basic stuff, isn't it?  Can anyone tell me if they actually
have a 6.0.x installation on Windows, running as a service, and using a
network share as the music folder?

I ran into just this problem yesterday with 6.0.1. I set it up on my laptop and created a folder that contained a Windows shortcut to my music directory on a Windows share. The share is also mapped to a drive. I tried it both ways, with an UNC and with the drive letter, and I set the service to run as the user I was logged in as -- but I just could not get it to work right. Same symptoms as you say; when I click on Browse Music Folder I get one line, "Music.lnk" (my Windows shortcut), but then when I click on that I get nothing. Looking at the log it seems that the server couldn't traverse down into share.


Yet when I ran the server via FireDaemon (again, running as the same user I normally log in as), it worked perfectly.

I must be doing something wrong; the above doesn't really make any sense. Yet I did spend about 15 minutes yesterday fooling around with various possibilities, all to no avail.

Perhaps I'll try some more experimentation this week. Certainly FireDaemon (although a wonderful free utility) shouldn't be required to run slim.exe as a service.
