NAME

mt-daapd - iTunes-compatible DAAP server

SYNOPSIS

mt-daapd [options]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the mt-daapd command.

mt-daapd, now known as the Firefly Media Server, is a DAAP (Digital Audio Access Protocol) server that works with most POSIX-compatible operating systems. It allows you to share your music collection over the local network using the DAAP protocol also used by Apple's iTunes.

mt-daapd offers an integrated web interface for configuration and control; the web interface is available on port 3689 (daap) with any web browser. If mt-daapd is running on the local machine, the web interface can be reached at <http://127.0.0.1:3689>.

The interface requires authentification; credentials are defined in the config file, /etc/mt-daapd.conf.

A summary of options is included below.
