B. Optional Extensions ---------------------- pyogg-vorbis.tcz - required if you want to stream ogg-vorbis files tcp-wrappers.tcz - to filter network traffic C. Configuration ---------------- A config file is created during the initial install and placed in: ~/.edna/edna.conf The only option which must be set prior to first use is the location of your mp3 directory in the [sources] section. (default: not set) Other options can be changed as well: 1. The port number (default: 8080) 2. User and password authentication (default: none) 3. Logging options (default: standard out) 4.
