The mDNS code that Apple provides is not only for OS X. It isn't even the preferred API for OS X. <http://developer.apple.com/darwin/projects/rendezvous/> has code for generic POSIX systems, OS X, Mac OS 9, and Windows (and a placeholder where they will put the VxWorks version) Apple doesn't recommend applications use the mDNS code directly, rather to create a single service on the machine that listens to the multicast data and have individual applications register with it. Mac OS X's NSNetServices (or CFNetworkServices) will do that. -- "Maybe I should be in Hollywood!" -- Samantha Langmead, age 5. on learning how to use iMovie.
