    Is that for GZ or NGZ?  I enabled the service in the GZ and didn't see any services register nor be able to resolve others outside of dns-sd.

    For example, Ndnd is my toughbook running OmniOS and Lrrr is my MBP.

    I could not ssh into Lrrr from Ndnd:
    # ssh carlos at Lrrr.local

    nor could I ssh into Ndnd from Lrrr:
    # ssh carlos at Ndnd.local

    The only way I could see the mdns services was via dns-sd.
