We did a patch for our product because we specifically didn't want any Avahi announcement on the aliases, only on eth0. It would be useful to have this functionality.

Would love some input on some of the below: 1. aliases should work rather similar to static hosts. Instead of reading /etc/avahi/hosts, it would read aliases, but in the same places in the control flow. 2. some people have implemented aliases outside of the avahi daemon, e.g. here: https://gist.github.com/gdamjan/3168336 Does this look correct? 3. --reload would also reload aliases. But: looking through reload_config() I’m confused why that routine only seems to invoke static_hosts_add_to_server() but not first static_hosts_remove_from_server()? Shouldn’t first get rid of the old values? Would appreciate any input. Thanks, Johannes.
