The reason no one has given you an easy recipe is that the *best* way to do this depends a lot on how you have your server set up and what other security issues you have/need/want. To get started, one option is to just make your music world readable with something like this: chmod -R +r /path/to/music/directory (This assumes that the parent directories are already world-readable.) Eventually, you will also want to make sure the slimserver user has write access to your playlist directory. If you're going to run your own linux server, it would be a good idea to learn a bit more about how file and directory permissions work. A good place to start might be http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permissions along with the man pages for chown, chmod and chgrp. Good luck. -- Fletch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fletch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=529 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32558 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
