Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has figured out how to allow avahi to work properly while running a firewall. I have tried enabling MDNS/MDNS Responder ports and various other ports - that does not seem to be working. MDNS on top of that uses a strange broadcast address of 224.0.0.251. That may also be comlicating things further.
My guess is that it depends on the service you want to use, which in your case I think it was finding printers. I'm doubtful it needs avahi, but in any case, I would simply look at packets intercepted by the firewall, or use tools like "iptraf" to find the connections. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
