Hello all, I'm writing a fairly simple server <-> client app. The server publishes a network name using Bonjour and clients get a list of names. They choose one (for now). After this choice, I would like the selection to somehow be saved using NSUserDefaults. I'm assuming the easiest way to do this is to get the name of the saved network and save that string. Is this assumption correct? If not, how would you suggest I accomplish this? Is there anyway to save the enough network information to reconnect to the same server even if the network name has been changed? The goal is to be able to automatically reconnect to an already chosen network -- if there's one saved -- when the app loads. I'm still learning this stuff, but it's becoming slightly easier. Thanks for the help.
There isn't anything reliable that you can save to be certain that you will be connecting to the same service. Network conditions change. I would suggest adding a UUID to the TXT record of the server's NSNetService to uniquely identify that instance of the server.
