Note that no special library (not even the mp3 decoding library libmad)
is needed for para_server if you only want to stream mp3 files.
There should be no errors but probably some warnings about missing
software packages which usually implies that not all audio formats will
be supported. If headers or libs are installed at unusual locations

As foo@server_host, create ~/.paraslash/server.users by typing the
following commands:
- user=bar
target=~/.paraslash/server.users
- key=~/.paraslash/key.pub.$user
+ key=~/.paraslash/key.pub.$LOGNAME
perms=AFS_READ,AFS_WRITE,VSS_READ,VSS_WRITE
mkdir -p ~/.paraslash
- echo "user $user $key $perms" >> $target
+ echo "user $LOGNAME $key $perms" >> $target
This gives "bar" the full privileges.
-Change to the bar account on client_host and generate the key-pair

Before starting the server make sure you have write permissions to
the directory /var/paraslash.
- sudo chown $user /var/paraslash
+ sudo chown $LOGNAME /var/paraslash
Alternatively, use the --afs_socket Option to specify a different
location for the afs command socket.
so the /var/paraslash directory should be writable for the user who
runs para_audiod.
-If you want to change the location of the socket, use the -s option
-for para_audiod or the config file ~/.paraslash/audiod.conf to change
-the default. Note that in this case you'll also have to specify the
-same value for para_audioc's -s option.

If para_server is playing, you should be able to listen to the audio
stream as soon as para_audiod is started. Once it is running, try
