This helps a lot. I know about the robots.txt trick, but for the life of
me, I can't figure out where to put it. I'm using Mac OSX (Leopard), and
as you know, the server is inside of a Preference Panel. I've dug into
that package (Apple lingo), but I can't quite figure out what's the
root server

I flushed the verbose logs, so I don't have the IP number of the Google

There are several blocks of Google addresses, it matters very much

Again, thanks so much, friends, for all your help.
I should have mentioned that I'm using the following build of the
server: SlimServer Version: 6.5.4 - 12568 - Mac OS X 10.4.11
(8S165).
I tried one of the nightly builds of 7.0 back in December, and it
wasn't really stable enough.

How'd I have guessed it'd be in that location
SO it's clear that the file is there.
I'll try unblocking again and generate a log, cuz it indeed look like
I'm getting a reverse-DNS invasion.
Too bad I can't simply block specific IP address domains.

Interesting... we have a robots.txt which should stop (well behaved)
crawlers. I'd be surprised if google.com weren't obeying it.
Make sure it comes up on your server at /robots.txt
I got curious and looked at this file on my
That IP (66.249.67.120) really is owned by Google. So if that isn't
googlebot, it's something doing IP spoofing, which seems kinda
unlikely. Do you see it pulling robots.txt before doing other things?

I guess I'll need to research the proper robots.txt content, as all I
see when I go to:
hxxp://bobfrost.dyndns.org:9000/robots.txt
[edited with xx to block bots]
all I get is:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
I just tried opening things up again (no IP address filtering) and I
again got hit with
So odd
Even if I specifically name google in the robots.txt file, it
still spiders. Stranger still, I can't figure out why a simple robot
sweep would rattle my selections/playlist.
Again, if anyone could indicate how I might just block a range of IP
addresses I could fix this.

Slimserver doesn't do range blocking (as far as I know) so you'll need
something else to do that. My router has that feature (well, you can
fake it with the firewall) but

You should update your Slimserver, they added a robots.txt in the latest
stable version. That will solve the googlebot problem. :)

Would you mind posting the slimserver's access logs so we can see what
IP the googlebot traffic is coming from?
Sean: Yes, GoogleBot will respect the robots.txt, the one in my SC7
looks fine.
You can verify it using the webmaster tools:

One more idea might be _not_ to publish the web interface to the world.
Bad boys don't read robots.txt but have fun playing some tunes on your
