I have a Debian Linux based file-server using Samba and nowadays being accessed successfully by Mac OS X clients..
I'd like this resource to be available in a more user friendly way, by means of Bonjour.
Is it possible, to configure the Linux server, so that it announces itself on the local network, via Bonjour? And if so, how?
Nowadays, port 445 is used. So the config file should look like this:
Create a file /etc/avahi/services/samba.service:
Then restart avahi:
You need to install Ahavi, which is a free ZeroConf (Bonjour) implementation. After that's done, see:
