I have enabled it on the WHS server and on each PC per HPs directions. Firefly started—-went out to the two PCs I have iTunes on—-and copied the music to folders inside the “Shared Music” folder on the WHS server.

I wonder if it’s possible that the server crashed. Can you get to the server using terminal services?

You should be able to go to start->run and type “mstsc” and connect to the server using the username “administrator” and the password of your whs.

Check control panel->administrative tools->services and see if the server is running. If it isn’t, then it probably crashed. (!)

If that’s the case, then open the config file in notepad (c:program filesfirefly media servermt-daapd.conf) and add an entry for “debuglevel=5” somewhere under the [general] section.

Start the server and let it crash, then check the logfile (firefly.log) and see what the last file it tried to scan was. That’s probably your culprit. Move it out of the way, and try again.
