Hi,

I would like to come back to the subject “listening to music without having to provide username and password”. It seems that there is a solution to that problem, but I did not understand it ….

So this is my scenario:

One slug with the firefly server installed on it. In the “admin-root” folder of firefly I originally installed the fireplay files. In order to listen to fireplay, I had to connect to http://www.mydomain.org:3689/FirePlay.html. Then I was asked for a user-id and a password. After entering that, I could listen to my music …

Now I tried a password-free configuration:

As I run a thttpd webserver on my slug too, I created a website “fireplay.www.mydomain.org”. In the root folder of this domain I copied all the files that belong to fireplay.

I then edited FirePlay.html in that way, that I entered “host=www.mydomain.orgport=3689”.

When browsing to “fireplay.www.mydomain.org/FirePlay.html” Fireplay opended without asking for a password. But then it tried to connect to http://www.mydomain.org … and never managed to list to songs, that were waiting in firefly.

So – what did I miss?
Thanks for your help.
