I should add one more thing to this. Hardware developers and people
shipping products should continue to use the stable release of
mDNSResponder. The current stable release is mDNSResponder-58.3.
We recommend that you not ship any products using the latest TOT
mDNSResponder source code in Darwin CVS, because it's not as well
tested and it most likely contains bugs.

Hi Wil,
In our Darwin CVS, we have an mDNSResponder daemon called "mdnsd" that
runs on Linux and FreeBSD, and it exports the same DNSServiceDiscovery
API that's used on Mac OS X, located in /usr/include/dns_sd.h.
This work is in its early stages, but it should be enough to do what
you need. Just check out the latest Darwin sources, and send your
feedback to the list. You don't need Libinfo to make this work, just
the mDNSResponder project.

Hello all,
What I'm looking for:
It would be great if someone could point me in the right direction to
the Linux equivalent of the DNSServiceDiscovery API. I've looked at
Libinfo-173 but haven't had any luck building it (on Linux). It
sounds like what I need - "Low level C API for registration of
services with mDNSResponder" - so maybe I just need some help getting
it built.
Background (if you're interested):
I've been working with Rendezvous for about a month now, following
the mailing list and what I can find on the web since last fall. I
currently have an application with a Cocoa client and a server that
is designed to be cross platform, supporting OS X, Linux, and WinXP.
All this is in place and I'm now working on incorporating Rendezvous
into the system for the usual service discovery benefits. The OS X
build of the server registers with the responder and the client finds
it perfectly, unsurprisingly. The next step is to get the Linux
version of the server working.
I have the mDNSResponder running as a daemon on my test box -
compiling the posix mDNS was fairly easy, and I added it to the
default runlevel with a config file that included advertising ssh.
All this was, for the most part, trivial.
Thanks for any help!
Sincerely,
Wil Turner
