Now Reading Full Article Trackback

Network: Most of machines are running Mac OS X, some are running Windows XP

Server: Running latest Fedore Core 6. Two hard disks, one for operating system and file/web server(160G), another one stores hourly backup(200G)

Requirement: rpm-build, gcc, libid3tag, libid3tag-devel, gdbm-devel, howl-devel, zlib-devel, and of course mt-daap(SRPM)

A good article to start with can be found on sblog. However, to install/rebuild mt-daap is not that straight forward. I build mt-daap from SRPM file using rpmbuild, and it depends on libid3tag, libid3tag-devel, gdbm-devel, howl-devel packages. You can simply install libid3tag, libid3tag-devel, gdbm-devel from YUM repository, but FC abandoned howl-devel since version 5. Looking arround in google, I found following package from rpmfind

-rw-r–r– 1 root root 107131 Apr 12 11:27 howl-0.9.8-3.i386.rpm
-rw-r–r– 1 root root 121394 Apr 12 11:26 howl-devel-0.9.8-3.i386.rpm
-rw-r–r– 1 root root 86547 Apr 12 11:27 howl-libs-0.9.8-3.i386.rpm

they are coming from FC4 repository, but you are safe to use them for your FC6 box. Apart from this, you can follow the detailed instruction on sblog. It wouldnt take more than 30 minutes, and you will have a fantastic ITune server in your network
