Sorry for a dumb question, but I couldn't figure that out from your references [1]..[4]: does that mean that the PostgreSQL server would "advertise itself" on the local net? Or what is the purpose of liking-in libavahi into the postmaster? Surely one wouldn't want this in a data center? Is there a possiblity to disable that at run time?
