Thanks for the response. That clears a bunch up. I
didn't realize I should be pulling directly from CVS.
I grabbed my version from the link on the developer
page. It seems to be missing all the library stuff and
the "make install" target.

One additional question. I noticed that with the
mDNSResponderPosix, I was able to pass a file
containing services (like Services.txt) using the -f
switch. I don't actually understand how to use the
file format, but I did manage to advertise my ssh
services locally which I kind of liked. But with this
CVS version, mdnsd is installed on my system instead
which I think is almost the same thing, but I don't
seem to be able to advertise services like the other
one. What should I do if I wanted this ability back?
Do I run both of them, replace mdns with
mDNSResponderPosix, or is there something else I need
to do? (Also, is there any documentation on that file
format?)

Thanks,
Eric
