Another method of using iTunes via the internet
Authored by: jantonc on Mar 30, '05 10:52:50AM

step zero - start the SlimServer on the Mac that hosts music

on the client machine
step one - connect via iTunes to host:9000/stream.mp3
step two - with your browser connect to host:9000/

At this point the SlimServer should allow you to buiid playlists and start the player.

don't know if the firewall is being problematic or not.
iTunes will be silent on first connect, but it must be connected and "playing" for the SlimServer to let you set up playlists.

Yes you need to open Port 9000, but you also need to open another port. I'm on my laptop right now and can't recall 100% what the other port was. I found it at slimdevices.com FAQ section. It works great now that I opened that port. I think it was a UDP port as well. I hope this helps steer you in the right direction.

Brent
