These were files I downloaded from http://calabashmusic.com/ to use as
mp3 on my Neuros player and they came as .php files. This is the prompt
response I received after contacting Calabash;

The problem is that we protect our MP3s with a PHP script.  So you make
a request to file.php?ID=123 and we pull the mp3 which corresponds to id
123 if you are permitted to download it.  This gets streamed to the
browser.  On all major MAC and PC browsers, (NS, IE, Opera), this works
fine.  I'll try to debug your problem on my redhat box, but I need to
know what browser you are using.  In the mean time, you should just be
able to rename the files to .mp3 instead of .php and they should play
just fine.  I'm sorry for the inconvenience, these browser / OS wars
make us developers toss and turn at night.  But we are committed to
making the site accessible to as many people as possible.

I've tried mv with this error message and the --help still confuses me;

 MUSIC]# mv /data2/MUSIC/*.php /data2/MUSIC/SoKalmery*.mp3
mv: when moving multiple files, last argument must be a directory
Try `mv --help' for more information.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] MUSIC]# mv *.php /data2/MUSIC/*.mp3
mv: when moving multiple files, last argument must be a directory
Try `mv --help' for more information

Thanks, Dirk
