Hello,

I have installed Debian Etch on NSLU and latest nightly. Firefly does not seem to see my music directory? I have played around with permissions, but no luck. I use this format for the path: “/usr/public/flac”. Any ideas?

P.S.:

Output from syslog:

And permissions on /usr/public/flac? And you’ve double-checked the spelling in the config?

Seems like it can only be one of those two things. Typo on spelling the path, or insufficient permissions on the flac directory. Must be r+x for the run_as user.
