The default points to the playlist folder configured in SqueezeCenter so unless you have changed these directory parameters you probably also have problem to edit playlists in your SC setup.
The Linux commands to change permissions are: - chmod (gives user, group or all read/write access to a specific directory) - chown (changes the owner of the specific directory) - chgrp (changes the group of the specific directory) Using "chmod 777 directory" is the easy way out but this is NOT recommended as it gives anyone with access to the machine write access to the directory and thus opens a security hole. The correct way to do it is to use the chgrp(or chown) command to make sure the directory belongs to a group which the SC user is member of and then use "chmod ug+w directory" to give everyone within the group write access to the directory. Use "man chgrp" or "man chmod" for more information about the chmod and chgrp commands. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60175 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
