Generally speaking, Avahi is used more directly by developers of applications and desktop software to integrate this functionality.
Allright.
While some ability to use Avahi directly (by creating static service advertisements, and using the command line tools to browse for services, as well as some of our more complete examples) - it is best actually used inside the context of other programs that already added Avahi support.Okay, So if an application does not support avahi, then we use avahi only for the advertisement of the service?
There is a list of such applications here: http://avahi.org/wiki/Avah4users#SoftwareMakinguseofAvahiFor advertising your printer, there is some patches available now in CUPS for Bonjour which can be used with our bonjour (dns_sd) compatibility wrapper. It is also possible to do this manually but that is quite difficult.
This is in vanilla CUPS?
Generally - you are best using some directly supported programs.
Allright, thanks.
