KsCD gives error message "error getting freedb entry".
From http://freedb.org, I find
"The servers run cddbp on port 8880 and http on port 80. The path for
http-access is /~cddb/cddb.cgi."
Does this mean that Shorewall is blocking 8880 ?
If so, how does one access Shorewall's permissions from Mandriva 2006 ?
Go to MCC (mandriva control center) and click on system - configuration -
configure your computer - security. If shorewall is running it will show a
column of choices to allow. Clicking on ADVANCED, an entry line appears at the
bottom where you can type in ¨8880/tcp¨. You should then have the port open
to cddb access.
This worked nicely, thanks Dennis. Then I read the other replies and closed
8880. Still getting freedb function with Grip and KSCD, so just how they got
fixed is a mystery that I can ignore.
