Digital Audio Access Protocol (DAAP)
DAAP is a protocol to share media in a network. It was first used in the program iTunes, but is widely used today.
Client
Amarok automatically shows the tracks from the server in the left pane and no further configuration is required.
Server
On Debian-based distributions like Ubuntu you can install a DAAP-server using
sudo apt-get install mt-daapd
This will install the Firefly-DAAP-server. You can configure it using the webinterface by opening the page http://localhost:3689/index.html . The default password is mt-daapd; the user field stays empty.
