Re: [Banshee-List] iTunes, banshee and DAAP

[Patrick van Staveren <trick vanstaveren us>]

I don't have the setup to test it on now, but I used to (a few months  
ago) run banshee on a linux box, itunes on a windows box, OpenVPN'd  
the windows box into the network that the linux box is in and it  
worked great.

OpenVPN is a pure IP tunnel - you can do whatever over an OpenVPN  
connection that you can do over a regular IP connection.  Thus, mDNS  
and anything else will work :) Michi - just hit up openvpn.org and  
read - it's far from hard to set up a quick vpn :)

Wish I could shed some more light on the subject.  Have you tried  
verifying that DAAP is working properly?  Maybe try using Tangerine  
and various DAAP browser software to see if you can see your own  
shares?  I don't have much knowledge on the DAAP subject, other than I  
know it'll work over a VPN :)

For more info on DAAP, Tangerine, and maybe a test util or two, check  
out www.snorp.net

Good luck,

Patrick
