Most certainly, with enough elbow-grease you'll be able to make the dream music server with Linux. Here's a starting article: http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT6488801276.html Also, I seem to remember something in a recent Linux Mag. I'll see if I can find that one... I've been using a Mac G4 tower and iTunes. I control the system with VNC. But, iTunes has been getting steadily more and more bloated with updates and with my ever-increasing music library, and I'd like to ditch it for a real server. -- pkm ~ http://paulmcnett.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
