Chill...
Could you please run through a "how-to" step-by-step implementation of this from ground zero. I'd like to do this. I have no linux skills, but know how to use ssh/Putty/WinScP.

There have been a lot of iterations of this and it's not obvious to me where to start, etc. Thanks! chill wrote: > I'd forgotten about the 'status' option of the built-in squeezelite > script, which makes it really simple to see if squeezelite has started > up.
