Ok.. how do I get track into the "current" list?  The only way I
seem
to be able to do this now is select tracks from the front panel of the
rio.  (There maybe something extreamly obvious I'm missing here.)

If I select tracks by browsing them.. say 10 tracks from Pink Floyd...
and then select the link "Play" there is a breif pause and
nothing
happens.  If I then select the link "current" there are no tracks
displayed... in any event.. even simply selecting "stop" while a
track
is playing (playing by using the front panel) the rio does not stop
and the track continues to play. Therefore I don't think the rio is
accepting or reciving commands when actions are taking place via the
web page.

The line in xplrionet.xml is such:

<xplhub enabled="Y" />

Nope no Firewall loaded and neither is the XP "firewall"
enabled... I
guess I will have to load ethereal and sniff the
communciations.

I Hope ethereal decodes the xpl packets correctly.. ;)
