Hi, I'm running the latest version of SoftSqueeze on a Solaris 10 x86 machine which has 2 audio devices configured (motherboard audio chip and a Sound Blaster Live! PCI card). I'm using the OSS audio drivers for Solaris. I'm having trouble controlling which device SoftSqueeze audio playback is s

Thanks. These are all good suggestions. In addition to all the above, it's also a good idea to run sshd under tcpwrappers. This allows you to allow or deny incoming TCP/IP connections based on source IP address. With all these in place, I believe (hope!) the security risks are reduced to accepta

These are server bugs not Alien! I think the path one should be fixed, but please raise a bug for the url one if it occurs in the current subversion. The probelm is that the server code is changing in a few place to handle playlists and doesn't trap the case of a remote playlist [used by Alien a

There are a number of things you should do to your ssh connection in general to make it much more secure. 1) Configure AllowUsers to allow only the user(s) you want remote connections from. 2) Create users with atypical usernames for remote connections (eg sb907priv). Common names (dave, root,

Okie dokie… I can work around it for now. I can't blame you for wanting to wait on 6.2. ;-) If you are interested in an enhancement request, here's a suggestion. It would be nice if I could designate an auto-on time but do the turning off manually. This would work better for me because I cut the

That is because it was designed for 6.1 not 6.2. I have been waiting for a solid 6.2 before installing it on my production box. I am planning on making some changes in the next couple of weeks so it will work with 6.2. -- tgoldstone ___ plugins mail

I've noticed a problem the last few days with the "Auto Dim Display" plugin and SlimServer 6.2 beta. When the display goes off at the specified time, I used to be able to turn it back on with the brightness button (if I wanted to check a song title or add to the playlist). Now, once the plugin tur

Thanks for the tip. That was indeed my problem. I enabled GatewayPorts and everything works fine now. Regarding my concern about having a real login account, SSH does seem to check that login is possible for the session to be established, so setting the SoftSqueeze account shell to "noshell" won
