Ah. In my experience, that's not what it does!

Yes, to both.

Yes, it's definitely a missing feature (for me at least). If I'm ever to use
Squeezeplay from work to playback music from my server at home, I need to be
able to tell it which server to connect to.

As to why it *ever* worked? Well, I'm afraid I can't help with that one :)

If memory serves, this version of Squeezeplay is from the Jive trunk, and
it's 'fixed' to a specific revision to enable Windows networking to work.
If anyone can tell me how I can tell (with TortoiseSVN) what revision my
repository is, I'll let you know.

Andy
