I wonder why the heck did I have that running, I don't have and never had an Apple in my premises, except of the eatable kind :-/
Rather than just turning it off because you don't know what it is, I suggest you try and find out a bit about mdns because it can be very useful !
SuSE says it is a "mDNSresponder to handle Apple Rendezvous requests".
As I don't have ane Apple, it is useless. Or is SuSE lying and it does some other things for non apple machines?
SUSE is not lying ;-). Such requests can just be done by non-apple machines as well, the protocoll is just called "Apple Rendezvous" AFAIK.
