I have tried with no success to control xbian, running on a Raspberry pi2, using my iPad. Every service is enabled on RP-2. However, if I install a PC with Kodi and run the same enabled services on RP-2, the iPad can control it. Any hint? What am I missing?
Thanks,
Moacir
How are you trying to control XBian? Via a browser, XBMC app or Yatse or something else.

Using the XMBC application for iPad that I download from iTunes.

what application? can you be more specific please? as there may be be hundreds of apps. sorry but if you want someone to help you you need to give more details
-what app in your tablet
-whats are your settings in that app
-settings in XBian/Kodi
edit: also are you sure you are on same network on both devices?
System>Settings>Webserver (enabled)?
Port - 8080
System>Settings>Remote control - enabled(both)?
System>Settings>AirPlay (enabled)?
My XBian sets are:
UPnP, all on
Web server, allow control, port 8080, user xbmc, no password, default web interface
Remote, all on
Zeroconf, on
AirPlay, allow receiving AirPlay on, no password
I am using this XBMC app:
https://itunes.apple.com/pt/app/official-xbmc-remote/id520480364?mt=8
As I mention, the XBMC iPad app will not find XBian. It will, however, find a Kodi installed on a old PC.
I am using the defaults of the iPad app that is just clicking on "Find XBMC". Also tried to include the IP address and 8080 port, stil does not work.
That App works on Android.
Try accessing via the browser <ip address>:8080 and see if that works.
Also check that the user is xbmc as some distros use kodi.
What's the IP address of the RPi and your iPad.
Also can you post the output of kodi.log and dmesg via pastebin.com

Problem description:
Does not allow for iPad XBMC Remote (ofitial XBMC app from iTUnes) to manage XBian. I can, however, access the XBian web page via

If you face the same problem I was facing, then make sure your WiFi and network is multicast aware. Enabling multicast has solved my problem.
