I now realize that in order to display my cover art on the SBT I cannot

Thanks for reply!
Yes, that's correct, I've chosen ethernet in the menus. Same behaviour
in both wireless and ethernet.
The wireless router is placed right next to the squeezebox, by the way

Are you using your computer for the WiFi access? i.e. WiFi devices
connect to your computer and not a WiFi router?
If yes, my suggestion would be to buy a good WiFi router, that alone
may solve your issue.

Only "slightly" if you don't have WMP on your system at all. WMP is

Problem solved: it was a DNS lookup problem.
I used a Seagate Dockstar with a Debian to host the SBS. The standard
Debian installation put a fixed /etc/resolv.conf (with the IP address
of my ISP DNS server) which obviously is not the same for every ISP.

Thanks Gary.
Can I just create a folder in the directory where I store all my music
titled "Playlists" and then copy the tunes I want into it?
If I have the artwork already imbedded then the SB should pick up both
the data and the art...yes?
I do not integrate the SB and iTunes either. The SB
Playlists are only lists of tracks in a particular format. It wouldn't
make any sense to copy the music into another folder just because it's
in an iTunes playlist.
I don't have iTunes installed anywhere at present -- is it possible to
save or 'export' an iTunes playlist as an .m3u file? If so,
Oh man, that worked like a charm!
Thank you very much!
