Ok, so everyone will probably get sick of all my questions this
week, but I've been tossed into a bit of unfamiliar territory (I'm
a programmer, not a sysadmin) this week with setting up a new
server here at work. One of the functions they need this server to
do is to play our hold music for the phone system. The old server
that this is replacing simply played music out of itunes (yes, the
old server is a mac mini) and an audio cable connects the mac to
the phone system.
So, the new server is headless, and I don't have X installed at
all. What sort of solutions are there out there that I can use to
just start music playing out of a pre-defined playlist when the
system boots and just have it play continuously forever?
If you are not using a Mac anymore and just using Linux you could use
the mplayer command line version. I am not sure of the configurations.
