wow, that was easy. :D thanks.

here's another annoyance: videos aren't showing up directly unless I
update the database through setup > video manager, where it tells me
that the files are missing. I remove them from the database with "yes
to all" and they show up on *that* machine, but then all the others
get the "Unknown prefix" folder, and they have to drill down many
levels to get to the videos.

What is going on with that? I don't see how to get around it since
it's an NFS share that's mounted at differently-named mount points on
the various frontends. Is there anyway to get around that, maybe with
symlinking or something?

thanks
