I do not consider this question off-topic on the list, but i think you
will have more changes to get help in amarok's mailing list:

Hi Cedric,

I just installed the package mt-daapd and on the file /etc/mt-daapd.conf i
just edited the parameters: mp3_dir to point to my music directory and
servername which I changed the name.
Later I restarted the service mt-daapd and It worked in local and remote
Amarok and also on iTunes.
