How do you automatically connect to a server at startup?
« on: April 02, 2004, 08:21:19 pm »

Is there a way to automatically connect to a media server when you start MJ8?  It's a pain to have to connect manually each time.

I tried adding the server to the command line, but that didn't work.

Any suggestions?

Yes there is...via mjextman...

create a shortcut to a batch file with the following...

rem Start batch
mjextman.exe /Power
mjextman.exe /Connect m01p://[ip address or host name]
rem End batch

The /Power command may not be needed...if so, neither is the batch...just put the /Connect line with your specific IP/Hostname in the shortcut.
