It's not "free" if it's on windoze because windoze isn't "free".

Sadly, MediaTomb doesn't play nice with the 360. The interface was fine,

but it just doesn't work with it yet.

Yeah, I was hoping for free; I can do it for free with Windows. Used to 
actually.

So, the question again sorta different: anybody out there connecting to
