Service discovery on Linux



Do I have to have both mdnsd and mDNSResponderPosix running to be able
to browse for services?    Or could I just run mdnsd and then use a
"custom" client to register, browse, lookup, and remove services?

I ask because I've noticed that I can browse (using dns-sd -B) only
when mdnsd is running regardless of services being registered via
mDNSResponderPosix.  Seems as though the dns-sd client relies on a
running mdnsd.

I would like to be able to have a network with only a few responders,
but yet allow any machine on the network to register and browse.  Do I
have to run mdnsd on each machine?  Do I have to run a responder at
all?
