DAAP compatibility Tutorial




If you want to use iTunes with the AVAP-Daemon you need the mDNS-Responder which you can download here. To extract the archive type

$ tar xvzf mDNSResponder-66.3.tar.gz

Enter the directory mDNSPosix and compile the Responder for linux, you don't need a "./configure"!

$ cd mDNSResponder-66.3/mDNSPosix
$ make os=linux

To start the mDNSResponder run the following command

$ cd build
$ ./mDNSResponderPosix -p 3689 -t _daap._tcp. -n 'NAME'&

For NAME you set the name you want the server to appear in iTunes!
