While that would be great in principal, it would require my parents
having to remount the filesystem as read-write whenever they wanted to
add any new tracks and remember to remount as read-only when finished -
I'm going to have a tough enough job training them to use the
Squeezebox/3 without having to train them on ssh, mount and various
other Unix commands! :)

My current plan is for them to rip and tag on a more powerful laptop
then copy the tracks over to the SlimServer PC using FileZilla (on a
PC) and betaftpd on the SlimServer PC - ie. double click the FileZilla
icon on their desktop, click on "Connect" and then drag & drop
(hopefully!) followed by a rescan.

Do you know if it is possible to have betaftpd mount the filesystem
read-write when a user connects, then have it remount read-only when
the user disconnects?

Failing that, even though the filesystem might [EMAIL PROTECTED] out eventually 
if
they pull the plug on the PC too often, I'll have to rely on the ext3
journalling!
