nss-mdns is a plugin for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality
|
|
of the GNU C Library (glibc) which provides host name resolution via
|
|
Multicast DNS (a.k.a. Zeroconf, a.k.a. Apple Rendezvous, a.k.a Apple Bonjour).
|
|
This effectively allows name resolution by common Unix/Linux programs in the
|
|
ad-hoc mDNS domain .local.
|
|
|
|
To test, the following command should return a mapping for the remote host:
|
|
getent hosts <hostname>.local
|
|
|
|
This requires avahi.
