I am new here and the next item on my list is iphoto sharing. Is it possible to tunnel that in a similar fashion to what is done with itunes (I was able to figure that one out from other posts)?

thanks

A quick look at iPhoto

A quick look at iPhoto sharing using Bonjour Browser (a very handy utility, by the way) tells me that the service is called _dpap._tcp. and the port is 8770.

However, doing some basic testing seems to reveal that this won't work out of the box. Meerkat includes some special settings for iTunes and it looks like iPhoto might require the same sort of thing.

I can look into support for iPhoto in an upcoming release.

I have still been looking

I have still been looking into this, but don't expect it in the next release. There seems to be another level to iPhoto sharing than to iTunes I think. I am emulating iTunes and other apps/code that provide photo shares, but still have issues. I'll keep working on it, though.
