In search of a DPAP photo server
26 Jan2009
I’m trying very hard to research and find a good DPAP photo server, which could serve as a repository of photos accessible via iPhoto. I see a lot of solutions like Firefly Media Server that work for iTunes media servers and I know that DPAP is based on DMAP, same as the DAAP which iTunes uses. I have seen mention of DPAP on Firefly’s website, but not sure how this all works. I can’t seem to find a good article that talks about setting up your own DPAP server. Anyone know of one?
I have found a couple Perl or Python scripts that seem to serve this, but not sure exactly how it all works…

So far, no luck on my end, but I am still trying to piece a solution together.

I’ve done some work on the latest fork of Firefly Media Server, and I’m pretty familiar with the DMAP protocols. I might put something like this together. What would you want a DPAP server to do, exactly?
