Sorry I should know this but I'm sorta green. If I enable
net.inet.ip.mforwarding on all my routers, should that allow
OS X things like bonjour and iTunes music sharing to work
across the bridge?
Bridge? Are you bridging or routing here? Please tell us more about
your network.
If you are ethernet bridging, as far as I know that will do nothing. If
you are routing, it is a different story, but I'm afraid my knowledge of
Bonjour is not good enough to give a definitive answer, but my
experiences with certain other multicast based protocols are that it is
easier to use ethernet bridge filtering than make routing work with
them. AFAIK Apple isn't targeting these services for large networks
anyway, they are to ease setting up a home or other small network that
is a single broadcast domain.
