Ok,

Have spent about 3 hours trying to get this to work with the same
result.... nothing.

I firstly went through the system with a fine tooth comb and made sure
I hadn't missed anything - all was present.

Next I updated the software which appeared to be the same as what was
on the system already. So my current system information is as follows:

Under System/Information:
System Version     02.01.50
OS Version            3.36
Software Version    02.09.84
HD stuff....
Settings                6116_06.ca
Installer                v07.00/B/P

Under Settings/System/System Information:
Unit Name            Azur

Under Settings/System/Product/Network/Options:
Automatic IP settings (DHCP) - i've switched this off

Under Settings/System/Product/Network/Ethernet:
IP Address           192.168.1.8
Subnet Mask        255.255.255.0
Gateway              192.168.1.1    (this is my ADSL router)
Name Server        210.15.254.240    (ISP's Name Server)

At this point I selected the Apply option to save the network settings
than went to Settings/System/Content/Add Location/File Location and
added a Friendly name, plus the name of the network share
("\\tigoshi\mp3s" minus the quote marks) and left the username as Guest
then went to Scan and each time it comes back with "Content location
could not be found".

A diagram of my network setup can be found at
http://www.bigcat.net.au/temp/network.gif to give a better idea of how
the network is setup and where the 640H connects to things.

I've tried turning off firewalls on the XP box to see if that makes a
difference to no avail. I even switched the DHCP server on the router
on and all I got was the 169.something virtual private network address
which meant it didn't find the DHCP server. I know the cabling is all
fine because as mentioned in a previous post i tested it using a laptop
to the point where the 640H is plugged into and was able to browse the
share fine.

The only other point to note is that my computers are networked in a
Windows Server Domain in that the XP machine requires me to logon which
is checked by the other machine via Active Directory (the whole windows
server thing), but this seems not to be the main problem as my laptop
is configured for my work Domain and differs from this Domain here.

Any thoughts? Suggestions??

Cheers muchly...
