      Hello everyone! I’m on my first attempt at making a MM as well as my first attempt with coding using a rpi so forgive me if I sound uninformed! I’m attempting to install shairport to allow for airplay and have been following the directions up until I have to configure Shairport sync. Anytime I put in:

      /etc/shairport-sync.conf

      It says permission denied. I even tried sudo beforehand and it then says no such file or directory. Any help would be appreciated.

      This is the instruction guide I’ve been following. Thanks!
