    Summary: nss-mdns provides host name resolution via Multicast DNS
    Description: 
    nss-mdns is a plugin for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality
    of the GNU C Library (glibc) providing host name resolution via
    Multicast DNS (aka Zeroconf, aka Apple Rendezvous, aka Apple Bonjour),
    effectively allowing name resolution by common Unix/Linux programs in
    the ad-hoc mDNS domain .local.
    
    nss-mdns provides client functionality only, which means that you have to run
    a mDNS responder daemon seperately from nss-mdns if you want to register
    the local host name via mDNS.
    
    It is necessary to change "hosts" in /etc/nsswitch.conf to
    hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
