Andy,
You are, of course, right - much easier than messing around with LDAP
groups & users. The only further complication for me is that my music
files are down a few levels in /opt/ on which I have set the sticky bit
for the group owner in order to force group membership for newly created
files
What are the present permissions for the Music folder?
-ls -l /opt/data/Storage-
Easier way than adding squeezeboxserver to your group is to give
universal access to the music folder.
Either as root or sudo
-chmod -R 755 /opt/data/Storage/Music-
You should then be able to browse to that folder

I think that you and Pfarrell are right and myself in the wrong.
Almost immediately after posting a reply to your first comments, I had
a flash thinking that somewhere in install process I had seen that
squeezebox server had created a user for itself. So I went to my
/etc/passwd file and s

Pretty smart for a non-*nix person.
Yes, permissions are very important.

Thanks for you input Mnyb.
But no I don't think it is not a permissions issue.
The Debian server was set up several years back and I have no problem
accessing any and all files and folders in /opt when I log onto the
server as myself (not root) directly sitting in front of it from a
terminal or
But are not the problem really that the squeezeboxserver user does not
have the rights to see those directories ?
If you change the permission settings on /opt it should work .
So it a linux feature sbs has no problem reading any dir if it got the
rights to do so.

would not would not a
