Hi,
good job !

I feshly install your script on my ubuntu.
If i understand well they are 2 version ? one perl and one in C (compiled) ? Or the two works together ?

Anywhere, when i start the perl script as writted in your documentation all is ok :
fabien@media-center:~/albertz-shairport-83c1b71$ perl shairport.pl -a TOTO -v
Listening...
Established under name '04C1D7CD203E@TOTO'

Then, i can see this new "airport" from itune (windows) or from my iphone.
When i try to connect from the iphone, it seems to succes, but they are any verbose information on my linux bash and unfortannally any sound....
Itunes, does not succed to connect (i think it is the same for the iphone).

Maybe, as your software seems to dectect nothing (no trace), i need to open some port on the linux side ?

thanks for your help, that's very cool.
