Use a Linux box as an iTunes music server
Authored by: pataslak on Apr 15, '04 07:45:30AM

I don't get it working. :( on my Mandrake 9.2 server

It compiles just fine (at least no errors).
My computer is named bilbo and has the IP 192.168.1.1
I run Rendezvous with

./mDNSProxyResponderPosix 192.168.1.1 squeal "Music" _daap._tcp. 3689

and get

Made Service Records for Music._daap._tcp.local.
Service lacci._daap._tcp.local. now registered and active

On the daapd site I chose to use the default values (with a config file it didn't work either). This gives me

daapd
scanning . for mp3s... done.

But any of my windows machine with iTunes cannot see the share.
I ran both commands as root.
daapd is running, I cannot start it twice.
How can I look if the Rendezvous part is working?

My itunes is 4.2.0.72
all my machine is on the same lan

What's wrong?
any help ?
thanks
