I am trying to configure my newly installed SlimServer application, but
cannot get the server to look at the correct directory. Please bear
with me, as I am a linux newb. If I am not giving enough information,
let me know and I'll post what I need to.

OS: Fedora FC4
SlimServer Version: 6.5.3 - 12376 - RedHat - EN - utf8
Server IP address: 192.168.81.11
Perl Version: 5.8.6 i386-linux-thread-multi
MySQL Version: 5.0.21-standard 

I want the Music dir to be /fileshare/Music and the playlists to be
/fileshare/Music/Playlists, where /fileshare is a Samba share. Every
time I try to set the server to this directory (via html utility) it
says, 'oops xxx doesn't seem to be a valid directory.' I have tried
various ways of specifying the path, ie
'192.168.xx.xx/fileshare/Music', '/fileshare/Music',
'//localhost/fileshare/music' all to no avail.

I think the problem might be that the slimserver user is neither part
of the 'share' group, nor one of the explicitly defined users who has
access to the share. However, when I use the Samba Server Config tool,
slimserver does not show up on the user list to be added.

Can anyone tell me how to either a)get the directory path typed in the
correct way so that it sees it, or b) how to add slimserver to the
'share' group and/or 'share' permission list?? Or, if I am way off base
on the cause, can someone tell me where I should be looking for the
problem?

Thanks much. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
