I’m a little confused. 13/06/2007 at 2:00 AM #11102 rpeddeParticipant @William_Syd wrote: If mDNS is built into mt-daapt, do I need to install Avahi or Howl ? I’m a little confused. Nope. But if you have avahi or howl, you need to compile mt-daapd with –enable-avahi or –enable-howl to use them instead of the built-in one. — Ron 13/06/2007 at 11:50 AM #11103 William_SydParticipant Thank you. I did some more reading and it would appear that if mt-daapt is going to be my only mDNS service then for ease I should use the built in one. If I’m going to have multiple services that require mDNS then using an external one is the way to go. On a different note, is there a newer list of ./configure flags and switches than the one in the wiki? 15/06/2007 at 6:28 AM #11104 rpeddeParticipant @William_Syd wrote: Thank you.

Hrm… no, but I’ll update it tomorrow. — Ron Author Posts Viewing 4 posts - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) The forum ‘General Discussion’ is closed to new topics and replies. → Welcome
