Fred, So am I correct in understanding - if you use the option to have a workstation use caed on another host, will the instance of caed that is actually playing the audio out to the sound card use the /var/snd that it sees on its local machine, or will the "remote" rdairplay (running on the thin client or similar) still be accessing the audio files and sending them back to the centralized caed?
Just looking for clarification. Thanks!
