To share music on my local server, Firefly Media Server(reviously known as “mt-daapd”) is the best server software to serve digital music to the Roku Soundbridge and iTunes. Set up is easy.

Step1: Installation

$ sudo apt-get install mt-daapd

Step2: Configuration

$ sudo nano /etc/mt-daapd.conf

Chang admin password and mp3_dir.

Or, open a browser http://ServerAddress:3689/, login as admin then do a full scan for the music files.

In Ubuntu, Rhythmbox works fine with DAAP, iTunes is OK too, of course.
