The other possibility is the Squeezebox remembers the server that used to run at the Audrey address. Short of doing a factory reset, I don't know how else to test that possibility. The alternate port is a red herring. I see the same behavior if the port is set to the default 9000. > Again, what's the point of what you're trying to do? Mostly just to simplify the server URL - I can just enter 'slim' in a browser address bar to call up the server's web UI. I see no good reason to run on an alternate HTTP port since I can easily configure additional IP addresses on the machine and use the standard HTTP port. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19103 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
