Ok, apologies for the multiple emails in quick succession, but I decided to
try some things and now it appears to be working -- mostly.

I opened a terminal in the GUI, logged on as root and ran 'aman' and the
server manager appeared! The slave was running fine, but the master was
running and/or wasn't communicating with the slave.

So I hopped over to the master, stopped the amand service, restarted
mysqld, then started amand again, ran aman from root in a GUI terminal, and
it worked!

The audio store is currently replicating, and the database is in the
process of getting set up with the master-slave relationship.

So it appears that the links from the Applications menu (well, for me in
Centos 6.6.) are not working.

I'm curious what you think about Rivendell and something like LCMC.
