Yes... I added the user to the audio group... and all users may read and
write from the /media/Personal directory (which contains ./snd where the
music is located)... and may do the same with /var/snd (rivendell sound
directory)

TO ALL USERS: Apparently my problem lies within /etc/hosts. The address
127.0.0.1 was defined as my domain name instead of my host computer name.
Changing this allowed rdimport to work... but not rdXport. Now I get an
error saying the URL /rd-bin/rdxport.cgi is not found... even though the
scriptalias is defined in /etc/apache2/conf.d/rivendell (points to
/etc/rivendell/apache.conf). I changed the alias back to /rd-bin/ in
/etc/rivendell/apache.conf . It was originally /rivendell/ .
