Regardless of what I do, I cannot get rid of the avahi junk in an ip a report, so my local 192.168.xx.nn/24 net is the only thing that works. pinging a net name like yahoo.com gets me a successful address. But no response from yahoo because its sending the ping from an avahi based address, which since thats outside of my /24 netmask, doesn't get thru the router.
So, how do I get rid of the avahi stuff? I've a nominally 10 machine 192.168.nn.xx that is 100% static based on host files so I want avahi absolutely and totally neutered, emasculated, gone Forever plus 100 years at least. How can I do that? Thanks. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
