Avahi package on pfSense

02-04-09

Many thanks to Scott who put together an official Avahi package for pfSense. You will need a release based on FreeBSD 7.1 for this package to work (I’m on 2.0 alpha, so this is easy). Go to the System->Packages menu, look for the Avahi package and click ‘+’ next to it to install it. Once installed, in typical pfSense package fashion, you’ll need to navigate to another page (I usually just go back to the packages screen) for the menus to get updated. Afterwards, you’ll have an Avahi menu item at the bottom of your Services menu.
