#avahi — Public Fediverse posts

Hi @rocking_horse,

I see in your profile, that you are interested in #Jabber and #Meshtastic and #NNTP. Are you aware of any attempts to combine either #XMPP with Meshtastic (more likely?) or XMPP with NNTP (very unlikely?). Maybe you know some online resources on the topic?

I'm curious about #serverless XMPP and used to use it many years ago (#Gajim by @gajim with #Avahi). Nowadays @Goffi seems to push it on the agenda again, with #Libervia:

Wenn man u.a. Geräte wie #Chromecast im Netz hat, dann merkt man schnell das diese viel...sehr viel per Multicast reden. Die einen blocken es und ich fange sie auf mit dem #mDNS Dienst. Auch bekannt als #ZeroConf, #Avahi oder #bonjour

Siehe https://bitunfall.de/posts/2025/05/31/mdns-uber-layer-3-grenzen/

oder https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeroconf#Multicast_DNS

Uh, Nice,

#Traefik läuft nun im #homelab auf dem #raspberrypi und so ganz nebenbei werden die Hostnamen via #mnds #avahi #zeroconf im local net verteilt. Dank #docker labels. Genauer gesagt: die traefik host regeln werden dafür wiederverwendet ...

(english:
#traefik is running my #homelab on the #raspberrypi and just as a side effect the hostnames are distributed via #mdns #avahi #zeroconf in my local domain. Thanks to #docker labels. Actually, the traefik host rules are re-used for this ...)

Following somebody submitting a PR to update I've spent an hour updating my Docker/Traefik/Avahi helper and pushing new Docker conatiners.

#docker #traefik #avahi #mDNS

My #fosdem talk in #dns room got accepted! Great news for me, although I have a lot to do to present the potential I have already in my head. But not yet in the code! I want to work also on #avahi release. Well, I should relax and refresh at the same time. Combination of all that would not be a simple task. Merry Christmas everyone!

We at OpenPrinting are aware of the problem and the bug is actually in CUPS and not in GNOME/GTK.

See

https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups/issues/176

I have originally reported this one. See the answers of CUPS author Michael Sweet. He has developed primarily under Mac OS (BSD-based) which uses mdnsresponder (Not Avahi as in Linux) where the problem does not occur, seems in CUPS' Avahi support.

Set as milestone for first CUPS 2.5.x release.

#OpenPrinting #CUPS #Avahi #mDNS #DNSSD

So with the help of #chatgpt I managed to fix the issue with #Airprint and #DebianTrixie. The problem is not #Avahi - it's #CUPS frontend.

When you set up a printer over http://localhost:631 and check "Share this printer" - it won't actually reflect in /etc/cups/printers.conf

So check that file and make sure you see "Shared Yes" there.

If it still won't work - here are more steps I took to fix it:

#linux #raspberrypi #debian

#avahi has one important limitation on multicast resolution. It expects host has only one important address on AF. At least that is offered by simple protocol used by nss-mdns. It cannot send multiple addresses on single name. That is often wrong. Is there potential contributor able to design fix for that? #mdns

complaint: #Avahi #mDNS has a tendency to completely implode and go AWOL for very long periods of time due to certain types of network disruptions, and it's a giant pain in the ass and a huge disincentive to relying on it

I really need to get my next generation network arch figured out, including internal name resolution, but it's a quicksand topic for my brain for some reason

@ds These entries are definitely from #Avahi. Thanks for the tip! When I stop the Avahi daemon they disappear.

It's still strange that this is the first semester where this is happening. Guess I'll have to investigate further, e. g. if the IT service at university has disabled separation of network devices.

I've got a network speaker (a Denon Home 150) that speaks "AirPlay Remote", "AirTunes Remote", "Tidal Connect", "Spotify Connect", "HEOS Audio", and "Qobuz Connect" according to Avahi.

How can I play music on this from Linux?

My music player (Strawberry) doesn't list it or any of those protocols, and I can't set it as an audio device (which is probably a good thing).

- Поставил на домашний сервер Avahi.
- Подумал зачем он мне нужен.
- Удалил Avahi.

I've expanded the #FreeBSD handbook with a section about #zeroconf and #Avahi. (#mDNS, #DNSSD).

Feedback welcome!

#Avahi repository got enabled vulnerability reporting via GitHub.com/avahi/avahi. If a way to crash avahi-daemon by network packets is discovered, use it to report it in private. Another small step to make #mdns on Linux safer. Someone still need to prepare fixes for it.

Sometimes I really hate computers.
I spent hours yesterday and today troubleshooting why one of my two #Linux laptops suddenly stopped being able to see printers on the network. Wasted lots of time trying lots of different things, narrowed it down to #mDNS query responses not being seen by the laptop.
Finally after all that it finally occurred to me to reboot my WiFi router. Problem solved. #it #CUPS #Avahi

Good News! #Avahi development seems to be alive again! @pemensik from Red Hat has pushed the v0.9rc1 tag for the upcoming 0.9 release!

For us at #OpenPrinting a well-maintained Avahi is essentially important.

Oh, just got my Christmas 🎁 from my #avahi colleague Evgeny. He stood behind me as member of #systemd project, which is highly unusual. Thank you! Very appreciated. ❤️

P.S. If you made it this far and are wondering what wsdd2/WS-Discovery is all about: #Microsoft broke discovery of LAN devices when deprecating #SMB1.

WS-Discovery is their attempt to "fix" this, and is basically a competitor to #Bonjour / #Avahi / #Zeroconf (why couldn't MS have just used that?).

Unfortunately it means only devices implementing WS-Discovery are visible in Windows 10/11's network browser.

Fortunately there's a #FOSS utility named #wsdd2 that implements WS-Discovery on Linux.

Updated #FreshTomato #firmware on my #Netgear #R7000 #router and #ASUS RT-N66U that I use as a switch + WiFi AP.

For some reason it was a pain to get the WAN working again. Rebooting the cable modem and R7000 eventually cleared it up?

Noticed that #busybox #ntpd on the firmware doesn't respond to ntpq queries and is rather config-limited, so I installed the #entware version on the R7000's USB stick.

Also uninstalled #avahi because it's now built into the firmware - neat! Now do #wsdd2 please!

I’ve been playing with the jwilder/nginx-proxy docker container recently. It automatically generates reverse proxy entries for other containers.

It does this by monitoring when new containers are started and then inspecting the environment variables attached to the new container. If the container has the VIRTUAL_HOST variable is uses it’s value as the virtual host for nginx to proxy access to […]
