Hi folks...
I have just completed an ldap-interface to the empeg player.
Currently it only reads the files in /drive0/fids ( I only have one drive ) and let's you make queries on the different attributen.
You can do queries from your linux PC over the network like :
ldapsearch -h hostname -b o=empegcar query
example queries :
find all tracks of artist whose name starts with pr in the year 1990
ldapsearch -h empeg -b o=empegcar '(&(artist=pr*)(year=1990)(type=tune))'
find all playlists which contain the string hello
ldapsearch -h empeg -b o=empegcar '(&(cn=*hello*)(type=playlist))'
the software is a modified version of the passwd backend of slapd.
slapd is the main software component of the openldap distribution.
You can choose to download the software from
this locationI will supply a pre-built binary, a sample slapd.conf and the modified source file search.c from the passwd backend
for execution on a standard empeg the library libresolv is required, so you can also download it...
