Hi All, I'm new to FreeBSD, but I am running into an issue I can't seem to solve after a few days. I have a FreeBSD 7.0 amd64 set up. I installed mt-daapd/avahi from ports. For some reason, I can see the share on the fileserver but not on the network. Its like everything just stops when it get to the em0 (interface plugged into the switch). I can browse multicast dns locally as seen below [root@freebsd /usr/ports]# avahi-browse _daap._tcp + em0 IPv4 freebsd _daap._tcp local My network card has mulitcast em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 I did add a mulitcast route route add -net 224.0.0.0 -iface em0 I have since taken it off since it didn't do anything And when i tcpdump and check the dump I see mulitcast broadcasts being sent out 20:42:00.085459 IP freebsd.mdns > 224.0.0.251.mdns: 0 [2a] PTR (QM)? _daap._tcp.local. (96) Both mt-daapd/avahi are running. When i browse on my network from my macbookpro I never see the daapd share mbp:~ jdunn$ mDNS -B _daap._tcp Browsing for _daap._tcp Talking to DNS SD Daemon at Mach port 4099 If i have itunes running on either of my macs it shows up during this request. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I could have messed up? Thanks for any help Joe
