Well well..

I was formulating a very detailed description of my system and it's
formatting and layout when I discoved the problem.

My "U2" directory is formatted as such:

X:\mp3\U2\Concerts\U2 - <album>\## - U2 - <song>.mp3
X:\mp3\U2\Misc\U2 - <song>.mp3
X:\mp3\U2\The Singles\U2 - <album>\## - U2 - <song>.mp3
X:\mp3\U2\U2 - <album>\## - U2 - <song>.mp3

Within the directory "The Singles", there was a shortcut for some
reason to X:\mp3\U2.

This caused the Slimserver to stop scanning and not pickup anything
after that.  There were no songs in the database at all after U2.

I don't know if this is expected behavior but clearly not a typical
circumstance.

However, I could see the possibility of using a shortcut to somewhere
previous in the database for artists who have collaborated with
another.  For example, I might want to put a shortcut in the U2 folder
to a Sinead O'Connor album "Featuring Bono".  I don't know if this
would cause the Slimserver to recurse or hault or fail.  Any opinions?

Thanks to all.  As is so often the cause, just "talking" about ones
problem can lead to the solution!
