Hi All -

I am able to change the startup script, build alac, and rpm install
lame. I am running into a few problems and need help.

1) Startup script issue.
When I run /etc/init.d/slimserver start, ss starts up but when I try
and access ss from a web browser, the process dies. If I manually start
ss by doing /usr/local/slimserver/slimserver.pl &, things seem to work
fine.  What have I done wrong? 
ps ax | grep slim reports the following:

/etc/init.d/slimserver start:
21887 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w
/usr/local/slimserver/slimserver.pl --daemon
--prefsfile=/etc/slimserver.conf --logfile=/tmp/slimserver.log

/usr/local/slimserver/slimsever.pl &:
21907 pts/0    S      0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w
/usr/local/slimserver/slimserver.pl

2) Alac
I downloaded alac_decoder-0.1.1, compiled it and cp it to:
/usr/local/bin/alac. I do which on alac, and get the corret path. When
I try and play a m4a song, my terminal window which is runing ss in the
background returns "expecting 'alac' data format, got m4pa". Does this
matter? If so, what have I done!

3)lame
Where do I add the -x for lame? Where does this command string live? Is
this a manual operation or is there some preference file?

thanks in advance.
