zeroconf (bonjour/avahi): macs do not see linuxes and vice versa
- by codesnik
In my home network I have several OS X boxes and several Ubuntu boxes.
each Ubuntu box sees other boxes via zeroconf.
I can "ssh ubuntu1.local" and "ping ubuntu1.local" from "ubuntu2.local", but both fail to lookup OSX boxes.
and other way around, I can "ssh mini1.local" from "mbair.local". but it doesn't see "ubuntu1.local"
why? do ubuntu and osx use different flavours of zeroconf? could be ubuntu, or osx tweaked to use common flavour?
