i don't know if anyone's going to be able to help me on this. i tried the upstream avahi list¹ to no avail, so i'm thinking that it's unlikely that anyone else is going to be able to help, but i'm going to try!
so i have multiple computers running lubuntu on the home network. just got a new laptop, a Lenovo G700. all the computers on the network talk nice to one another through .local addressing that avahi provides. …except for the new laptop. here's what's TOTALLY bizarre: * new laptop can't connect to addresses with .local * all the other computers can talk to new laptop with .local * avahi-browse and avahi-resolve -n works fine in both directions * /etc/hosts, /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/nsswitch.conf are identical on all machines i've restarted the router, so it's not an issue with caching. any clues?! wxl ¹ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/avahi/2014-March/002293.html -- Lubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
