Thanks Robert and Alessio! 

I appreciate your response. I have now copied the /var/snd library from the old 
ubuntu 10.04 box (32 bit) to the new CentOS appliance (5.9 Final) 2.5 Rivendell 
/var/snd directory. 


Now, I anxiously enter RDLibrary, only to find the test tone (cart# 999999) 
supplied with the new appliance setup and nothing else. Hmmm. Oh, maybe the 
database needs to be restored from the 2.2 version on the old machine. I was 
sure I'd read to do that. So in a daring (foolish) poke of the button, I 
restore the previous db. And now, the results of that trial. 


What? The RDLibrary is empty, RDAirPlay buttons are grey'd out and so is 
LogEdit. I'm betting there's a simple command or two to straighten out 
permissions. (yes, I did back up the new 2.5 as soon as I got it situated on 
the new box "rdbackup-20130402-202.sql 11.3 gzip file -rw-r-r-- root root"). 


Well, that's interesting since the previous db backup was " -rwxr--r-- rd 
users" so I'd have to unzip the backup to take the 2.5 db a step back to the 
clean new setup. Correct? Or, hopefully I can fix this as it sits now. 


Thanks for your patience with a production guy/wannabe Rivendell operator.

Hope that's some help
