Apologies for not getting back to you with logging info on the issue
with CLI issued blocks not being cleared, and automated shutdown not

I had to rebuild my server in the end, and installed Ubuntu 9.10, and

I can confirm that genpuid-1.2 is compatible with MusicIP 1.8.
For MIP1.9 you have to use Genpuid-1.4 (which has some nice additional
