==== FORKED-DAAPD (UPDATED MT-DAAPD) ====
[http://blog.technologeek.org/category/hacks/forked-daapd forked-daapd] is an updated version to [http://www.fireflymediaserver.org/ FireFly Media Server] which is no longer being developed. This is boasted to be compatible with the latest iTunes. It seems that forked-daapd does not include a web interface. I have managed to locate the custom RPMs needed to test it.
To install, this is what I did:
*Install RPM Fusion (Free) app
*Downloaded forked-daapd and sqlite from the following location:
<u>32-bit</u><br>
<nowiki>http://rpms.netmindz.net/FC14/i386/RPMS.netmindz/forked-daapd-0.18-1.fc14.i386.rpm
http://rpms.netmindz.net/FC14/i386/RPMS.netmindz/sqlite-3.6.23.1-2.fc14.i386.rpm</nowiki>
<u>64-bit</u><br>
<nowiki>http://rpms.netmindz.net/FC14/x86_64/RPMS.netmindz/forked-daapd-0.18-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm
http://rpms.netmindz.net/FC14/x86_64/RPMS.netmindz/sqlite-3.6.23.1-2.fc14.x86_64.rpm</nowiki>
* Install RPMs and start service:
yum localinstall sqlite --nogpgcheck
localinstall forked-daapd --nogpgcheck
service forked-daapd start
==== To start the service on reboot: ====
You need to edit /etc/init.d/forked-daapd to make it compatible with chkconfig. Change the line:
# chkconfig 345 100 1<br>
to be:
# chkconfig 345 99 1<br>
Save and exit then type the following:
chkconfig forked-daapd on
The /etc/forked-daapd.conf file has the settings and port assignment for the app. I managed to install it in my VM, but did not have a chance to test.
