OK, now I can switch between servers. Both are running 7.2.1 at the moment. The magic seemed to be doing the factory reset on the controller. When I did that, it asked for the username and password for both servers. Perhaps the fact that I enable the security feature in squeezecenter is what complicated this for me.
I wish there was a way to take care of things like this without having to resort to a factory reset each time. I'd even settle for editing files on the controller by logging in via ssh.
So that's fine. I still don't see the web page like Aubuti has shown. That I think is a nice feature. Is there some hidden parameter that has to be turned on for that to work?

Glad to hear you got that sorted out. As for the player drop-down menu, you should have that whenever you have more than one player in range, even if it's only two players, each connected to different servers. There's no special switch or parameter. Do you not have any way to switch between players on the web ui? Or do you get the old style drop-down that just shows players connected to the current server?
What skin are you using? I just checked and saw that the listing for players on other servers only seems to appear with the default skin, and not Classic, Fishbone, Nokia770, or Touch.Nothing high-end, but music anywhere I want it, and it's 100% wind powered.

I get the old style drop down in the top right hand corner that just lists the players connected to the server. There is an option at the bottom of the list to synchronize players. If I move a player to the other server via the remote, it disappears from the list on one server and appears on the other. The players on each server are not visible on the other server.
I have 5 or 6 players - 2 sb3s, 2 sbrs, and 1 or 2 instances of squeezeslave. I am using the default skin - the one that is the Logitech green theme.
What is interesting is that if I switch a player to another server via the web UI, it remains in both lists. However, there is no separator like you show indicating the server.
I've used both IE and FF browsers and see the same behavior. I also flushed the cache directory on the secondary server when I installed 7.2.1 after uninstalling 7.3.
Now this bothers me seeing how it should work :-(.
At least I've made some progress.
Thanks for your continued input.Rich
