    I didn’t notice a surge of complaints, so I doubt it’s the case, but updating iTunes was the most recent thing I did on my MacBook before I couldn’t see my Firefly share.

      * mt-daapd/Firefly Version: (0.2.4+r1376-2+b1)
      * Server Operating System: Debian Unstable
      * Server Hardware: Beige Box
      * Client Device: iTunes [7.3.1 (3)] for Mac OS X
      * Connection of clients: LAN. MacBook is on the wireless, server is wired into the router

    For whatever reason, iTunes no longer sees the share. I can access the server at http://MACHINE_NAME:3689 fine, I can SSH in and see the process running just fine. The only notable difference on the server end is generally there were two instances of mt-daapd in my `ps aux` output, but now there’s only one:

    ynadji@onizuka:~$ ps aux | grep daap
    102:mt-daapd 10121 0.1 0.3 38612 4732 pts/1 Sl 11:32 0:01 /usr/sbin/mt-daapd

    Here’s the output when I run the daemon manually with debug at 9, don’t know if this’ll be useful or not:

    ynadji@onizuka:/usr/sbin$ sudo ./mt-daapd -d 9 -f

    I only posted this because I thought the HOWL error might be a problem. Any ideas?

    It looks like the avahi daemon isn’t running. Double-check that. If it is, check /var/log/daemon.log to see if avahi generated any errors when mt-daapd tried to register with it.

    That’s what I’d check first, and what I would suspect the most.

    But nothing from avahi? And you are sure the avahi daemon is running? It shows up in ps?

    Nope, ps aux | grep avahi doesn’t show anything =(.

    Seems as though it was a problem with debian. Fully updating the system took care of the issue. Thanks!
