I am writing an application that needs to connect with a running network service on a Mac.

Problem is, I have no idea what the service is called or even what port it uses. Is there a way to browse all running network services on my Mac?

More info:

  • I am connecting to a MIDI network session (found under 'Audio MIDI settings', present on all OSX installs). Am I correct in thinking this is a network service?

  • I am planning to use NSNetServiceBrowser to locate all local computers running this service. (is this the best way to go about it?)

Any help is much appreciated - thanks!
