Yes, slim.exe is the server and slimserver.exe is a GUI program. You don't need slimserver.exe - it's just a branded web browser with some hard-coded buttons for controlling SlimServer. You can use the browser that you normally use on a daily basis and connect to your SlimServer web interface at http://localhost:9000/. Create a shortcut somewhere that is convenient for you - your desktop, toolbar, favorites, whatever. > Also, in the slimserver entry under Start->All Programs, I have > something called Slim Web Interface which when selected opens a dialog > claiming that windows is searching for Interface.url but it never finds > it. What is this and do I need it? What is it used for? I get the same. I'd guess it's a missing shortcut that should point to http://localhost:9000/. The SlimServer Windows installer could probably use a little work. -- JJZolx _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
