Bug ID: 293405
Summary: dns/mDNSResponderPosix: complains during boot about
specifying service name
Product: Ports & Packages
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: Individual Port(s)
Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: bms@FreeBSD.org
mDNSResponderPosix complains during system boot about specifying a
service name. This looks to be by design. There is no way it could ever
have done anything; the rc script is invoking it without any options of
any kind, other than the -b switch for daemon mode. Raise this with the
appropriate port maintainer.
On the affected FreeBSD instance, mdnsd is already running to provide mDNS
services. For now, just turn it off: sudo service mdnsresponderposix disable ;
sudo shutdown -r now and confirm that we still have mDNS advertisement.
Indeed we do. So whilst the package may be required for the dns-sd
command, the service is not and may be safely ignored.
