Biography

For the DNS implementation, I've followed the RFC1035 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1035.txt and RFC2782 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2782.txt.

This implementation is compatible with the apple mDNS (Multicast DNS) draft http://files.multicastdns.org/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns.txt.

Bonjour protocol uses the mDNS protocol for its service discovery. You may download bonjour from apple site : http://developer.apple.com/networking/bonjour/
