That's an extra configuration and for that reason suffers (additionally from the extra work the user has to do in order to find and provide the necessary info) from the problem of how/when to update this information. Stefan PS: Of course access to the filesystem may no be trivial. My main MPD is running on a separate machine, so of course I know about this problem. But at least if I know "hostname+filename" I can more easily try to access it than if I only know the hostname+portnumer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
