           Summary: Firewall allowed services should contain mDNS by default
           Product: openSUSE 10.3
           Version: RC 1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Network
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: abockover@xxxxxxxxxx
         QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx
          Found By: ---


With the firewall turned on by default, mDNS services will not work. This is a
rather large problem considering the mDNS stack actually works by default out
of the box now.

The firewall should be configured to allow mDNS (that is, "Zeroconf/Bonjour
Multicast DNS") as an allowed service. This configuration should be *default.*

With this not turned on, things like Music Sharing in Banshee will not work.

Somewhat related to bug #298872.
