Make sure iTunes mounts a networked music library
This is a neat trick. I banged my head a few times on the desk thinking "why didn't I think of this before!". Thanks for pointing it out. I hid the iTunes icon on the remote drive using/Developers/Tools/SetFile -a V iTunes
Dan, if you are having problems with IPs one option would be to run your own DNS server. I'm not gonna go in details on this, but this is possible if you use a router with a custom firmware, or use a real machine to to route your network. Since I only have a few machines, the easiest solution for me, bind is a PITA and I hadn't heard of dnsmasq and djdns at the time, was to create a /etc/hosts file with all the domains. Of course, I have "static" dhcp declaration, so this works nicely. Maybe you could use a custom Bonjour (mDNS) entry for the remote server to broadcast it's IP when it changes. ---

My problem is, I store most of my media on a Linux server which I built solely to store music, movies, and back up data over my network.

I'd suggest you have an issue with either your SMB server or client setup. I do exactly the same thing, and it works great. |
