How does one disable this daemon anyway? This doesn't work: $ sudo update-rc.d -f avahi-daemon remove $ sudo update-rc.d avahi-daemon defaults Neither does setting this in /etc/defaults/avahi-daemon as some sources I googled suggested: AVAHI_DAEMON_START=0. An old bug report to this package (#462155) says that's been removed and you should use this instead: $ sysv-rc-conf avahi-daemon off That doesn't work either, it keeps starting up after reboot. It doesn't work either to set this in avahi-daemon.conf, it creates eth0:avahi still: deny-interfaces=eth0,wlan0,tun0 Manually stopping it suggests that it may just be started again implicitly when something accesses its socket: $ sudo service avahi-daemon stop Warning: Stopping avahi-daemon.service, but it can still be activated by: avahi-daemon.socket And indeed doing that has no effect, even killing it just brings it right back up: ==> /var/log/daemon.log <== Oct 5 14:14:54 snth avahi-daemon[3475]: avahi-daemon 0.6.31 exiting. Oct 5 14:14:54 snth systemd[1]: Stopped Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD Stack. Oct 5 14:14:54 snth dbus[676]: [system] Activating via systemd: service name='org.freedesktop.Avahi' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.Avahi.service' So maybe I'm missing something really obvious but if you could tell me how this service can be stopped that would be much appreciated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
