Hi all, I'm trying to build an ad-hoc network with multiple devices that all run a webserver providing webpages that serve as a configuration interface. Idea is, someone can access adhoc-config.local in his browser, which is resolved to one of the available IPs and is presented the gui.
According to RFC 6762 page 6, I thought such operation should be possible: "The Multicast DNS protocol allows hosts to verify and maintain unique names for resource records where that behavior is desired, and it also allows hosts to maintain multiple resource records with a single shared name where that behavior is desired." Is this implemented in avahi? I couldn't find an option to disable duplicate hostname resolution (avahi always appends "-2", "-3", ...). If it is not possible to use the same host name for different devices at the same time, is there some sort of signal that tells remaining devices in the network "adhoc-config.local" just left the network? So they can react to it and reset their hostname?
