debian's abcde package and cddb

[Deedra Waters]

After a while I got the  abcde thing set up, but have ran into a slight
problem. when I try and run it it starts fine and then I get this message
Looking up CD name....Getting CD info...got it.
cddb-tool: CDDB error: 433 Unauthorized client: cddb-tool 0.1.2.1

I'm not really sure what this means, or how to fix it, but if anyone has
ideas, or how to fix it I'd appreciate the help. thanks.

The comercial cddb service at cddb.cddb.com blocked all
unauthorized clients that includes cddb-tool. Only clients that 
are registered can access th e service. As a result;
you need to get cddb-tool to access
freedb.freedb.org instead of cddb.cddb.com
I use the following command to get info on a cd:
cdown -H freedb.freedb.org
but that doesn't help with abcde. I'll look into abcde and see if I can set it up here
and let you know what I did.

Regards, Kerry.
