linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi Friends, I am trying to check mDNS and xmDNS services in our companies product. As part of that i am discovering the services of xmDNS using Avahi-discover. If i am announcing the service with domain ".local" (Link-local Multicast - FF02-FB) Avahi-discover is able to discover and querying the services. But if i am try to announce the service with domain ".site" (Site local multicast - FF05::FB). Avahi-discover is not able to discover the services and not querying the services. Can somebody help me to solve this problem. (Hardware)

Avahi add second hostname 5 weeks 3 days ago

Is it possible to let Avahi announce another hostname for the same machine?

I know it is meant to announce 'services', but usual clients like eg. browsers lack Avahi service support and rely on name resolution. Thus I would like to mark certain services by host names like my_fileserver.local, my_tools.local and so on.

I am only advertising an NFS share plus the "model", and I don't want to install extra services on the Server unless I have to, ie netatalk, as it is used solely for NFS exports.

Currently there is no entry in Finder under "Shared" with below config of Avahi.

serveradmin@FILESERVER:/etc/avahi/services$ cat nfs.service <?xml version="1.0" standalone='no'?><!--*-nxml-*--> <!DOCTYPE

Problems with CUPS 1.6 41 weeks 12 hours ago

After I updated to CUPS 1.6, I experienced the following problems:1. Since CUPS sharing protocol was dropped, I can't see shared printers on my local network even if avahi-daemon started before cupsd. I simply can't figure out how can I share my printer in an auto-discoverable way with avahi. (I can see the printer in avahi-discover, but not in printer dialog.)2.

Understanding systemd services 38 weeks 3 days ago

Hi. I switched to a pure systemd setup, now I'm not sure which daemons are set up to run at boot. Before it was very simple because all I had to do is look in rc.conf.Someone on irc (sudokode - thanks) suggested "systemctl disable <tab> <tab>". It is a nice trick but I'm sure it is not needed, right?

Hi. I'm running a Linux server at home, used mainly as file-server and router.

Recently, I've been having a lot of trouble with network slowdown. I see a ton of "localhost avahi-daemon[1897]: Invalid query packet" messages, with the pid number changing ever so often. A reboot seems to temporarily fix the issue, but only for a few minutes.

avahi-discover was worthless.

Hi, I have a Fedora 12 server running a PPTP VPN. My server has a single NIC (eth0) in the 192.168.0.0./24 network connected to a broadband router (192.168.0.1).

I have two forests with a two way trust between them. VMM 2012 sits in ForestA and I can discover hosts in ForestA with no issue.

I've a system that was recently upgraded (within the last month) from Server 2003 to Server 2008.

systemd - dbus gets killed 35 weeks 4 days ago

Ok I "solved" this a while ago. MPD is trying to start avahi and that fails and causes dbus to crash...
