Thank you. Apparently we were being stupid. I totally wasn't aware that chosing the ".local" TLD in a local network could be a bad idea. It has always been natural for me to chose ".local" for IP addresses in RFC1918 ranges. And I have currently no idea whether I need to set up a network service that replies to mDNS requests. > Of course, it would be good if this behaviour was configurable - having > '.local.' as a suffix for local domain names is probably quite usual in > pre-mdns installations.

We will keep on researching what the best way might be. Apparently it's not Psi's fault then. Best regards Christoph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
