Really?!  Do you have a working configuration file?  You need to set the
port in your configuration to a port that you can connect to napster
servers through.  It could be that you never specified a working one and
it doesn't save the one it finds--causing it to repeat the procedure each
time you start it up.

Yeah, but it portscans every time you bring it up...I wonder if there's a
way to "mask" a scan from portscan or nmap to look like a napster scan?

Napster was actually written fairly well.  It will not send any file that
doesn't have any mp3 header information and it's been written by
security-conscious people (napster and nocarrier are in w00w00).

since we're on the topic, how about napster?  that's in use by a bazillion
people .. although i don't know how fair that'd be to the napster people, as
i think they're still in beta.  just a suggestion.

There is an old saying that if a million monkeys typed on a million
