And don't mention these foolish attempts of integration done by some other distributions. What is needed is another daemon (or an extended and renamed mDNSResponder) which monitors the network and caches all entries for the appropriate time. The daemon needs a programming interface so that a new NSS module can be used to query the daemon's cache of known addresses and probably also to initiate the daemon to send out requests for information which isn't in the cache. I talked with the author of the current (unusable) nss_mdns module and he plans to do something like this after I explained it to him. But I haven't seen any progress. -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖
