My computer is displaying an error that says that another device on my
network is using the same IP address.
If you have a wireless Squeezebox and you have connected it using both
ethernet and wireless, your Squeezebox may have created a “loop” in your
network and you need to disconnect one of your network connections.
Unplug the ethernet connection or go back to the setup screens to set up
your Squeezebox to connect using ethernet.
I’m trying to use a mapped network drive like Y:\ for my Music Folder on my
Windows computer and it does not work.
If you are using Windows NT, 2000 or XP, SlimServer is running as a
Windows service. Windows services do not have permission to use
networked drives by default. You must run the SlimServer service as a user
who has permission to use the shared volume. To do this, go to Control
Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. Find SlimServer and double-click
to view the properties. Click on the Log On tab, then click This Account and
enter the account information for the user account that has access to the
network volume.
Tip: The user account for the service must be protected by a
password for this to work.
If you are still having problems, try using a UNC-style path to specify your
music library in the Server Settings page. Instead of X:\path for a mounted
volume or mapped drive, use \\SERVER\path\ style addressing. This may
work for some servers where direct volume letter mapping does not.
How do I use multiple folders or disks with my music library?
Y ou can create links or shortcuts to other folders and place them in your
specified Music Library Folder. The contents of the linked folders will then
be part of your Music Library.
