Great idea about the firewall entries - I will do that shortly but wanted to ask a couple of questions first and to clarify a point about the situation.
What is it that you see that makes you say that the 3483 comms are to a port 3483 on a different system? Which log of mine do you see that? Are you referring to the ip of 66.150.114.115:3483 (the local machine is 192.168.1.51)? If you are that is the ip of nat.dc.squeezenetwork.com:3483 which from my ping is mysqueezebox.com. If you're not referring to that then I'm not sure what. I only want to make sure we're looking at the same thing and if I have a wrong log to figure out why. Actually this is the only reference I ever see to 3483 - could the call to mysqueezebox be always blocking the port? (sorry I don't know what I'm talking about). There is no log.conf file in the prefs folder - could this be because the server has never actually started? On my "main" server I run 7.3.1 and I see this file so I see what you mean but it isn't there at all. Is this file editable anyway - header says that "This file is autogenerated by Slim::Utils::Log". I would need more help / instructions on doing this step anyway (sorry I'm so needy). Also, just to reiterate - the server never ever starts - it gets shortcircuited by the fatal error. I will proceed with a reinstall after dumping the firewall entries and your subsequent steps except I don't know how to add the degug entires.
