All, |

I've got the mdns stuff working and it looks pretty useful. My plan for |
4 |
now is to work on the mdns code to adjust it so that we have two |
5 |
binaries: |
6 |
|
7 |
gold-server-advertise -t <nfs|http|ftp> <url> |
8 |
gold-server-find |
9 |
|
10 |
Where the first runs on the gold server and responds to gold server |
11 |
queries and the second runs on the client to find the gold server. |
12 |
|
13 |
Then we have bootstrapping support :) The new machine can boot, sort |
14 |
itself out with an IP and then find the gold server and how to talk to |
15 |
it so we can pull our config/install script down. |
16 |
|
17 |
I shall hopefully have some code available to play with soon, but it |
18 |
won't be today as I'm not a C expert so we'll need to find help to hack |
19 |
at the C code from mdns. |

cheers, |
