I have 2 Apple Macs and new Opensolaris machine, the hostname of which is 
'homer'. I have tried to switch on mDNS on the Opensolaris machine (homer) by 
enabling the multicast service on:

svcadm enable network/dns/multicast

and editting the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to contain:

hosts: files mdns dns
ipnodes: files mdns dns

however when I check it by pinging homer.local from the Macs without success. I 
also tried

getent hosts homer.local

and was expecting to get t

192.168.1.3  homer.local

but instead got

127.0.0.1  homer.local   localhost   loghost

Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong?
