Use a Linux box as an iTunes music server
Authored by: alien8d on Nov 01, '03 08:27:15PM

I've got all of the components compiled and running on RedHat Linux 8.0. seems to work pretty nicely, and I can even access it from 2 machines simultaneously (although since installing i've pretty much just used one of my machines)

what i've noticed is that after awhile (seemingly randomly or if i put the machine to sleep and then wake it up) the responder either stops broadcasting the daapd share or something else is broken.

when this happens, a netstat -an shows a connection from the client machine on port 3689 as ESTABLISHED (although it really isn't)

so far the only way to get iTunes to see the share again is to restart the mDNSProxyResponder.

has anyone else experienced this? any suggestions?

thanks

I've got the same issue... daapd service fully available in iTunes, but disappears after a while. Any idea meanwhile to get around this?

thanks
Sven
