Using shortcuts will of course work but is much less transparent. A shortcut is just an ordinary file that includes information that links to the target. Windows Explorer and Slimserver has the ability to parse that information to change directory to the target subfolder. Using NTFS junction points creates a seamless link similar to what mounting does in Linux/Unix. If you have other applications that traverse the music library (e.g. for differential backups) they will probably have a hard time with shortcuts but will work effortlessly with junction points. -- bergek Transporter - Genelec 8020A Squeezebox 3 - Yamaha NX-A01 Serener GS-L02 - Via EPIA SP8000 - Ubuntu 6.06 Server ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bergek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7805 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33286 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
