Description Michael Herger 2008-11-14 03:09:12 UTC
Take two password protected SC. Player is connected to A, Controller is asking for login/pw of SC A. Use Controller to connect player to SC B -> while the player connects, Controller won't ask for the new login/pw. Tries to connect, eventually giving up with a network failure message.
Comment 1 Joerg Schwieder 2008-11-14 04:10:35 UTC
Two more comments:
1) The PLAYER will successfully connect to server B. If you ever planned to connect your player to your neighbor's server and not get it back - that's the way to do it.

2) The error message says "Sequeezebox could not connect to the wireless network", which is confusing in two ways: it's not the wireless network the controller cannot connect to, but the server and it is also not the PLAYER that cannot connect, but the controller.

Is the logon name / password the same or different between the 2 servers?
Comment 3 Joerg Schwieder 2008-11-17 13:13:23 UTC
Different.
Can't expect different servers to have the same credentials, right?
Comment 4 James Richardson 2008-11-17 13:33:19 UTC
Also, attempting to setup a factory reset duet to a SC with password fails.  I get the "problem connecting; go back; try again" error messages
Comment 5 James Richardson 2008-11-17 13:53:58 UTC
Any relation to bug 5887
Comment 6 James Richardson 2008-11-17 14:02:10 UTC
Connecting IP3k players to a protected SC I do not get prompted with logon credentials.  The players just log right in, is this correct?
Comment 7 James Richardson 2008-11-17 14:22:25 UTC
SC 7.2.1 works fine.

Richard, would this be yours to look at?
Comment 8 Chris Owens 2009-03-16 09:40:39 UTC
We are now planning to make a 7.3.3 release.  Please review your bugs (all marked open against 7.3.3) to see if they can be fixed in the next few weeks, or if they should be retargeted for 7.4 or future.

Thanks!
Comment 9 Chris Owens 2009-03-30 17:34:10 UTC
Since there's now a planned 7.3.3 release, bugs which won't make the cut-off are being moved to the next target out.  If you feel that this bug needs to be addressed more (or less) urgently than the 7.4 release, please cc chris@slimdevices.com and leave a comment in the bug to that effect so we can review it.

Thanks.

Reset priority before triage.
Comment 11 Seth Schulte 2009-08-06 11:29:16 UTC
Moving to a P2, as the set of users impacted is likely quite small (they need to have multiple SCs _and_ have them password-protected). Once we see how full we are, perhaps we can pull this one back in.
Comment 12 Ben Klaas 2009-08-26 07:52:20 UTC
this is an administrative shuffle on priority fields to help make better judgment on the top end of the priority list. P4->P5, P3->P4, and P2->P3.
Comment 13 Alan Young 2011-11-06 23:23:25 UTC
Unassigned bugs cannot have a priority.
