Just because I like to keep things as convoluted and complicated as possible, I run multiple server instances under Debian, Ubuntu and whatever Max2Play uses (Raspian?). I have a common favorites.opml for all of them stored in a common playlists location. I've been able to create symlinks in /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs that point to the shared file and it works for a while, but for some reason that link is often overwritten by a new physical file. Since it's not (as far as I know) possible to change permissions for a link, I can't prevent LMS from performing the overwrite.
Other than not doing things in such an unnecessarily screwed up way, am I missing an obvious workaround? I suppose that worst case I could just schedule a script to delete the file/link and re-create it every hour or so, but that seems...extreme. I found a thread from back in 2009 saying that favorites.opml is by default stored in the defined playlists location, but that appears to no longer be the case. Suggestions welcome! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105961 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
