Avahi is an implementation of the DNS Service Discovery and Multicast DNS
|
|
specifications for Zeroconf Computing. It uses D-BUS for communication
|
|
between user applications and a system daemon. The daemon is used to
|
|
coordinate application efforts in caching replies, necessary to minimize
|
|
the traffic imposed on networks. This kind of technology is already
|
|
found in Apple MacOS X (branded Rendezvous Bonjour and sometimes Zeroconf)
|
|
and is very convenient.
|
|
|
|
You will need to have an "avahi" user and group on the target system
|
|
prior to installing the avahi package. See README.SBo in this directory
|
|
(it is also installed to the package docmentation directory) for more
|
|
information and for setup notes.
|
|
|
|
mono is an optional dependency that also requires gtk-sharp - enable it
|
|
with the following: "MONO=yes ./avahi.SlackBuild"
