Publish mDNS aliases automatically

This is a "set and forget" solution for people who want multiple .local addresses without the joy of them breaking every time their laptop sneezes and switches Wi-Fi networks.

Installation

a. With make install

  1. Run make install
  2. ???
  3. Profi.... wait it's free fucking software damn it!

b. With a debian package because of course I provide one

  1. Build the package with make deb-pkg
  2. Install the resulting .deb using apt or dpkg or whathever you want to use

How-to-use

sudo systemctl enable --now avahi-alias@look-ma-no-ips.local

Firewall

Usually you also have to allow port 5353/udp if you have a firewall enabled.

Not every firewall completely blocks mDNS traffic but you should assume that it does and explicitly add a rule to allow mDNS traffic on your desired network.

About

A dumb easy script to get avahi to publish multiple names automatically
