Description Mark 2006-01-17 17:43:30 UTC

My music is stored on a network drive which I have mounted to Windows XP as a network drive.   ITunes sees the music on the drive and works fine.  Slimserver indicates: New value for Music Folder rejected:

    Oops - "x:\" doesn't seem to be a valid directory. Try again

I've also tried X  X:  

Any ideas?

Ahhh, I'm new to network drives.  Sooo, iTunes sees the drive as X:\ because that is what I mounted it as under windows Map Network Drive.  Slimserver wanted \\THECUS_N2100\iTunes which must be some slightly lower level name for the drive.   Well, it's all a mystery to my but now slimserver sees my music.  Perhaps you could add this advice to a FAQ?  Perhaps I missed it and it is already there.

It's there, but the list is large:
