Subsonic should behave better in Linux...

[karamorf]

It would be nice if subsonic behaved a bit like a native Linux application in a couple of instances. I realize this is probably a small portion of the user base but these shouldn't be that difficult and would be rather nice...

It took me a while to figure out what port subsonic decided to use. Using the output from `netstat -nlp`wasn't useful since subsonic isn't listed. Though the port Subsonic uses is listed, the name using the port is just blank. I did finally find that the default port is 4040 from doing `subsonic -h`. It's unusual for a help output to tell me what the default setting. The init.d script should specify the port number instead of letting it be internally defined like it is now (and yes, I did look here before getting the help output).


Linux has users that are actually used in a way that makes sense. It would be nice if Subsonic could authenticate against /etc/passwd. I can see why this is, since users don't make sense under windows (just do everything under admin and call it good!).

None of these are deal breakers, just slightly annoying or would be nice to have ... great app though!
