Did you install squeezeboxserver from the rpm? If you did, there should be a squeezeboxserver account now under which the service will run. What happens if you run the command
# id squeezeboxserver ..by using PuTTY to ssh into your headless box? Does id report that there is a squeezeboxserver user account? Secondly, please run the srvrpowerctrl-setup.sh from the _Redhat_ folder. If ClearOS is a CentOS derivative, that means it's a Redhat / Fedora derivative. The only difference between the Redhat & Debian setup scripts involve slight (but important) differences in syntax in the lines that get added to the /etc/sudoers file. You may need to delete the scp-*.sh files from /usr/local/sbin and you may need to manually edit the suoders file and delete the lines added by the Debian setup script. With those chores, the free WinSCP utility, running on your XP box, will be your friend. Finally, the problem with executing shutdown from the SBClassic: you've got me stumped. I've never seen this one before. You might try resetting all the SrvrPowerCtrl settings back to the defaults using the button at the bottom of the SrvrPowerCtrl settings page. Unfortunately, nothing else immediately comes to mind. If anything does occur to me though, I'll post about this here again. Is it just shutdown that you can't do from the SBClassic? Does hibernation work? I won't be in a position to test with a SBClassic until June so we'll have to work this out together. -- 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
