<font size="+1">I quickly lost control of my machine's IP
addresses. The pain increased to the point where it overcame my
reluctance to change. BTW I avoided getting choped in two by the
trap by triggering it with a bit of old ethernet cable. I
savoured the cheese, you bet. While munching my morsal I searched
the web. <br>
This site worked for me. I like it when the commands are in
little boxes so I can cut and paste into my SSH terminal box.
With dual screen you can move quickly. <br>

apt-get install avahi-daemon It went so quickly that I thought
it might not work, but it does.<br>

They had a nice write up on how Windows tried to implement mDNS
and where to find the Apple Bonjour software.<br>
It seems to work too. <br>

<font size="+1"><font face="Comic Sans MS">Some amazing
stuff. I was wondering if you could make a local DNS
server for the house. I was thinking of looking into
that, but it seems it has already been done. I like that
mDNS will work with regular DNS. I will have to evolve
into this. I figure if I keep trying to keep track my
network stuff with hand written files, that eventually it
will be so painful and hard that learning a bunch of new
stuff will be the easy way out.... Does building a
better mouse trap only create smarter mice? Wait a minute
I see some cheese <br>
