Multiple instances on NSLU2 with debian etch

[johnboy4809]

hi to everyone here

I know multiple instances of mt-daapd have been covered before, but im still getting stuck. i am running debian etch on my nslu2 and whilst there are instructions to do this on over nslu2 installs i cant find one for debian. i created multiple playlists in /etc along side the original mt-daapd.conf but the people say to edit files in the opt directory and cant find any of these files. can anyone help me with a step by step way to get multiple instances up and running on my etch nslu2

thanks to you all

copy /etc/mt-daapd.conf to /etc/mt-daapd2.conf. Change port. Change mp3_dir. Change server name. Change db_params from /var/cache/mt-daapd to /var/cache/mt-daapd2. Save the file.

mkdir /var/cache/mt-daapd2
chmod 777 /var/cache.mt-daapd2

/usr/sbin/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd2.conf

That should do it. Other than that, it’s just a matter of tuning the stuff to be the way you want it to be.

Yell if that doesnt’ work.
