Hopefully, someone with more OSX chops will chime in here. But I can't think of any reason why there should be a /usr/local/sbin executable FILE, and, as far as I can tell, neither does google: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=osx+%2Fusr%2Flocal%2Fsbin+executable&fp=1 So, give this a try, again in a terminal window: #sudo mv /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/sbin.org That should rename any sort of a /usr/local/sbin file and get it out of the way. Then rerun the setup script. Please let me know if that solves your problem. PS: looking at the install script, I do seem to be accounting for the fact that Snow Leopard doesn't come with a /usr/local/sbin by default: Code: -------------------- #Target dir we're copying scripts into.. TRG_SCRIPT_DIR='/usr/local/sbin' # Snow leopard: /usr/local may not exist! if [ ! -d "$TRG_SCRIPT_DIR" ] then echo "Creating dir $TRG_SCRIPT_DIR" mkdir -pv "$TRG_SCRIPT_DIR" fi -------------------- -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
