Default File Sharing to Stereo System

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this. I have a client who
wants to share his music to his stereo. Read the summary below for more
details.

He has two external USB drives full of nothing but digital quality music
(direct CD copies it looks like). He wants me to hook the drives up to his
server and then he wants where the music can be played on his stereo. He
does have fiber and CAT-5 connections running to every room in the house. I
am not sure if there is a component that hooks up to the stereo that will
allow it to be connected via CAT-5 and read the file shares.

Any advice on the best way to handle this would be appreciated.

FF

I think I found something more in line with what my client has in mind:

There are a number of devices that can do this. Linksys makes a "Home

Media
Adapter" -

There are other brands doing the same thing, but I don't have any links

for them
at the moment.
