Hmmm Apple has actually made the life harder for people here because of pressure from the industry not to share this music further than the local network requiring these ssh-tunnel workarounds.
But firefly has no obligation to Apple and even supports the RSP alternative protocol anyway. So I am wondering if there isnt a way to simply make firefly announce the DAAP and RSP protocols in a way that doesnt limit it to the the local network but uses a mechanism that works without tunnels.
Dunno if I understand the underlying nw technique good enough but I happen to think that if Apple can turn this off then an Apple independant server may as well turn it on again or?
