Or, alternately, don't care what your printer's ridiculously long IPv6 IP is at this moment, (ULA/GUA/assigned: it really doesn't matter) and use mdns like normal people. Otherwise we're ignoring the forest for the trees, I don't expect to try to explain to my grandma how to type in 2001:45ea:344b:dead:beef::27 and/or remember it, when "printer1" will do. This just makes me think of this: http://bash.org/?14258 If we need a way to mdns to work across subnet boundries in a single administrative domain, so be it. If we need a better mdns, lets make that too, but we *really* need to get away from direct IPs in general. -Blake
