    Slimp3 Player on Mac OS X Jaguar, 300MHz G3

    Thanks Dean... Only 50 songs... I wanted to test before moving a whole
    bunch of files. I was watching "top" and didn't see paging.

    Any diagnostics I can employ? Where are the logs? I'm comfortable using
    the command line.

    Hi Sally,

    What does Process Viewer or top say about the server process?

    Also, is the web interface working for you?
