First - the find command you used will have a problem because the "*" will be expanded by the shell and not be seenby find. I think you should use either find / -name "*.pref" find / -name \*.pref
Because I wanted to be sure where the logfile and preferences are saved and what they are called my "slimserver" script for 6.5.x defines them explicitly and uses the --logfile and --prefsfile options each time slimserver is run. The 6.3.1 module doesn't have such a script so the file will go to their defaut unless you have used the --logfile or --prefile option. For 6.3.1. my previous comments about logfile were wrong, AFAICT from the code if no logfile is defined, then no log file will be written but the log messages will be sent to STDERR if not run as a daemon. The preferences files will be called ".slimserver.pref" - the leading dot makes it a hidden file and so ls will not show it unless you used "-a". If the default path is used it will be saved in the directory defined by environment variable HOME. Because slimserver can look for/store files in different places depending on OS/Distribution - I prefer to override the default to be sure slimserver uses the files and locations I want it to use and not pick up a default or try to access some odd directory. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36596 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
