OK, I got it working. Sort of. With some offline help from Thomas 
Foster (with Thanks).

I deinstalled and reinstalled mDNSResponder.

That port now puts a file  mdns.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d which starts 
mdnsd -- whatever that is.

I created a new file mDNSResponder.sh which contains the mdns.sh script 
from http://www.section6.net/help/daapd.php. I set up everything else 
as detailed there.

I rebooted.

And I am able to see the server from iTunes on my mac.

However, most of the songs have neither artist or any other tag and the 
time field says Continuous.

How do I fix that?

And does anyone know what all these versions of mdns are?

Alan
