mt-daapd on startup using Debian

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I am running my mt-daapd server on a debian computer with fluxbox. I am trying to get firefly to run att startup. But I don’t seem to be able to make it. Does anybody know how to do it?

update-rc.d mt-daapd defaults

This will make the script “/etc/init.d/mt-daapd” run at startup.
My guess is you have that one already.

If not, here’s mine:
I think it came from the 0.2.4 stable mt-daapd release.
It still works with the latest 1696 build.
