I've been getting a few avahi-daemon errors in /var/log/messages, eg ------------------------------- Jan 11 00:40:24 helen avahi-daemon[12732]: Invalid query packet. Jan 11 00:40:29 helen last message repeated 17 times ------------------------------- (This is on a CentOS-5.7 server.) So I looked up avahi on the web, but as far as I could see it is not doing anything essential; so I was wondering if stopping avahi-daemon would have any bad effect? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin
