I think that Mac OS 10.3 and above have bash as default. However, 10.2 and below had tcsh as default, and if one upgraded to 10.3 (rather than having a new machine that used 10.3 or 10.4) then this remained the default. -- danco -

Some versions of bash seem to try to emulate Bourne shells too closely with /bin/sh! Do all target platforms have bash? If so we could change this to /bin/bash as the default version... -- Triode Triode's Profile: http:/

For debian startup scripts check out the wiki. Also there are issues regarding permissions - checkout that the AlienBBC files has the same owner/group as the slimserver files. On some installation it varies - there have been a number of thread on this. -- bpa --

what os are you running ? what version of slimserver, Mplayer, AlienBBC ? You're trying to hard to solve the problem by following every message. Just run slimserver with a log with d_source_v and d_source flags on and select a BBC station. Then post the log. -- bpa

URL are updated frequently by scanning the BBC website so they should never be out of date unless BBC changes the web site organsiation What's your problem that you are trying to solve ? Get the standalone Mplayer test working first if you are havng problems with AlienBBC. If you want more mess

It turns out the URLs are correct - but the -really-quiet option to mplayers causes it to error with mplayer: could not connect to socket mplayer: Connection refused Removing this option makes it start to fill the cache - but it never proceeds - it gets as far as 18% and then goes back to 0 -
