Well, thanks for the code however it is supported ....

Here is a little help from me, but how to resolve the issue I am not
sure.

Your web interface is acting very odly, in the 7.9.2 server. It seems to
be trying to act 'real clever' but the result of which is that it is
doing exactly the opposite of what really makes sense. I have been
running slim server squeeze logitech server since the early days. Never
had much trouble.

Now however I tried to re-install on a fresh install of Ubuntu Server.
Strange behaviour is evident.

The http server fires up and in netstat -l I see it is bound to no
specific network interface. That's okay, but having control would be
better.

Still it gets worse. This server has multiple network interfaces, 2
internal and one external (public internet). When I connect to the
server from my internal LAN subnet I get a 403: Forbidden response. The
server log is trying to send its response message to my public internet
address. Even though the traffic is all totally internal. If I open a
hole in my firewall for port 9000, sure enough I can connect with the
server on port 9000 no problem from the public Internet!!!!

Nothing I have tried will make the server operate (bind) itself to my
internal lan interface. Even if I unplug the Internet link and have only
local interfaces. It refuse to use these. I think perhaps because the
Internet interface is alive, but just missing an IP address. I will
investigate further on this.

I tried changing some settings in the
/var/lib/squeezeboxserver/server.prefs file (allowedHosts: and
bindAddress), but they just get ignored. Regardless of what these are
the server only ever binds to my Internet address (BTW this is the first
network interface listed on my server...go figure)

So bottom line.....I can not yet use the damn server and worse I have no
control over what it is doing.

Maybe you can give me some better idea about how to control the server
at set-up, I will if needed start messing with my underlying OS, but
this is really not the best approach. 
Any tips, I have already seen others facing the same problems, so I'm
not alone. Its inflexible.

Thanks
