Thanks. Elegant in its simplicity. I'd love to do this. In fact the
drive with my music on it is already mounted. But I can't connect to
port 9000 on the Wandboard to open the LMS page and change the settings.
Could that be the result of the LMS installation having been messed up?
The version I have installed is logitechmediaserver 7.9.2.arch2-1.
