No root and using "sudo" is normal for many distro - there are plenty of post regarding the security rationale for this approach. I don't know volumio distro and it seems to have done something weird or else you have done LMS installation incorrectly 1. Get back onto volumnio message boards as it seems to be a volumio issue. 2. Learn more Linux. Permissision basics - read onling there are plenty of tutorials. Each userid is a member of a group. Files and directories have basically 3 perrmissions - Read, Write and Execute/List Files and Directories are owned by a user (who is in a group) - so each file has an owning User and Group and so to control access to a file/duirec - permissions on the file / directory are set for the Owner, The owning Group and Others So to check if squeeze+ can write to /var/log 1. Check the gorup to which squeeze+ belong 2. Check the ownership of the /var/log directory 3. Compare permission of /var /log for User, Group and Others against squeeze+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107359 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
