Hi All,

I am newbie to networking concepts. In our application we have a requirement where in, when user gives the IP address the printer details will be displayed and device URI need to accessed. I have used Bonjour discovery and it works fine, if the printer is in the same sub-net. But it was not possible to access a device on different sub-net. Is there any way to access printers on different sub-net.


Wide-area Bonjour is some deep, dark DNS voodoo that nobody supports because nobody's ever really documented it very well and dnsextd is not commonly available outside of Apple Land. This is about as good as it gets:

http://www.dns-sd.org/ServerSetup.html

The process makes sense in theory, but I've never actually gotten it to work with those examples myself.
