BlackIce, McAfee Security Center, ZoneAlarm, and eTrust. You will need to confi gure your fi rewall software or hardware to allow connections to ports 3483 and 9000 for both UDP and TCP connections. Refer to the documentation that came with your fi rewall for details.

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 Squeezebox2 and you have connected it using both ethernet and wireless, your Squeezebox2 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 Squeezebox2 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.

Hint: 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?

You can create links or shortcuts to other folders and place them in your specifi ed Music Library Folder. The contents of the linked folders will then be part of your Music Library.

I added some music to my library but it’s not showing up.

If you add music to your music library, you may need to tell SlimServer to rescan your music library. From the web interface, click Server Settings, and click Rescan. SlimServer begins to examine your music folder, looking for new music.
