mt-daapd is an iTunes server for POSIX systems.  When run, iTunes will see the 
music as a shared library to other clients on the LAN, just as the OS X and 
Windows clients.  

To work properly, the music must be located on the same filesystem on which 
the daemon is running.  Also, a template has been placed in /etc/mt-daapd.conf
This file should be edited before the daemon is run.

An init script has been included for the daemon; to run at boot time, add the 
following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
  
  if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.mt-daapd ]; then
    /etc/rc.d/rc.mt-daapd start
  fi

You might also want to have the daemon shut down gracefully on system halt or 
reboot; if so, add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown:

  if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.mt-daapd ]; then
    /etc/rc.d/rc.mt-daapd stop
  fi
