Using Linux as an iTunes server

It’s easy to use a Linux as an iTunes server, I’ve just tried so and works perfect. First I installed rendezvous . After that I emerged daapd. Then it is necessary to edit /etc/daapd.conf so the Root points to your music directory ( ie: /home/music ). After that as root we can launch the service ( being 192.168.1.121 your iTunes daapd server ):

$ mDNSProxyResponderPosix 192.168.1.121 squeal “Gentoo iTunes” _daap._tcp. 3689 &
$ /etc/init.d/daapd start
