I’ve spent all day on this without success. I’ve boiled the test down to this:
** start two brand new clean EC2 instances running Ubuntu 18.04 ** both instances are started in the same VPC and same subnet so they should be on the same local network ** sudo apt install avahi-daemon ps ax on machine 1 shows: 1847 ? Ss 0:00 avahi-daemon: running [ip-10-0-0-72.local] ps ax on machine 2 shows: 1866 ? Ss 0:00 avahi-daemon: running [ip-10-0-0-124.local] A direct ping using ip addresses between the machines works. Nothing I do makes allows me to see the other machine using hostname.local I’ve read vast number of web pages and spent 12 hours fiddling with every possible setting I can find to make them talk to each other. Can anyone help? thanks Andrew _______________________________________________ avahi mailing list avahi@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/avahi
