Re: mDNS, daapd iTunes etc

2005-01-27 Thread Thomas Foster
This usually indicates that the mp3s have no id3 tag information.. though 
there are many tools available for download that allow you to put this 
information for each song, it can be tedious.  Any suggestions out there for 
id3 tag tools?

OK, I got it working. Sort of. With some offline help from Thomas Foster 
(with Thanks).

I deinstalled and reinstalled mDNSResponder.
That port now puts a file  mdns.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d which starts 
mdnsd -- whatever that is.

I created a new file mDNSResponder.sh which contains the mdns.sh script 
from http://www.section6.net/help/daapd.php. I set up everything else as 
detailed there.

I rebooted.
And I am able to see the server from iTunes on my mac.
However, most of the songs have neither artist or any other tag and the 
time field says Continuous.

How do I fix that?
And does anyone know what all these versions of mdns are?
Alan

I am trying to get mDNSResponder and daapd running on my FreeBSD 5.3 
server.

I tried the instructions in this previous post.
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2005-January/ 
070463.html

There seem to be three (or four or five?) ports that refer to mDNS.
1. mdnsd
2. mDNSResponder
3. p5-Net-Rendezvous
there are also
4. Howl
5. gmdns
On the advice of the post mentioned above, I installed  p5-Net-Rendezvous 
but then looked in vain for
/usr/local/bin/mDNSResponder

So which should I use and how do I configure it?
Alan

I followed exactly the proceedure described in 
http://www.section6.net/help/daapd.php and got this error when I 
started mdns.sh.

cannot create /var/log/mdns.log: Permission denied
I also should note that the port /usr/port/net/mDNSResponder now puts a 
file mdns.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d which starts

/usr/local/sbin/mdnsd
so I am more confused.
