What do you mean by that? Why would you want to know about more than one IP address? Don't forget that if you get an address from mDNS you should not assume that it is stable, reliable or valid for any extended period of time. You should use it only to connect to a service right away and then forget about it. And because that is the way it is it is irrelevant which address is returned to you, as long as it works for the moment. > As far as i can see U.I.A. uses wide area bonjour in there > implementation I totally don't get what UIA does, but they do say you can use Avahi via avahi-utils on the web site. Hence I am pretty sure they don't require any functionality that Avahi doesn't provide right now. > So connecting "nodes" without a central wide area bonjour > server would be our final goal. This is very confusing. Either you use wide area Bonjour and then you do have a central server or you don't use it and then you don't. The only distuingishing part between normal mDNS/DNS-SD and wide-area DNS-SD is whether we use a central server or not. Hence what you write here makes no sense, no sense at all.
