NAME

       avahi-publish-service - Register an mDNS/DNS-SD service or host name or
       address mapping using the Avahi daemon


SYNOPSIS

       avahi-publish -s [options] name service-type port [TXT data ...]

       avahi-publish-service [options] name service-type port [TXT data ...]

       avahi-publish -a [options] host name address

       avahi-publish-address [options] host name address


DESCRIPTION

       Register an mDNS/DNS-SD service or host name/address mapping using the
       Avahi daemon.


OPTIONS

       When calling in service registration mode, specify a DNS-SD service
       name (e.g. "Lennart's Files"), a service type (e.g. _http._tcp) and an
       IP port number for the service, optionally followed by any number of
       TXT record strings on the command line. When calling in address/host
       name registration mode specify a fully qualified host name and an
       address (IPv4 or IPv6).

       -s | --service
              Register a service. avahi-publish-service is equivalent to
              avahi-publish -s.

       -a | --address
              Register an address/host name mapping. avahi-publish-address is
              equivalent to avahi-publish -a.

       -v | --verbose
              Enable verbose mode.

       -H | --host= HOSTNAME
              Specify a host name for this service, in case it doesn't reside
              on the local host. This host name needs to be fully qualified
              and resolvable using mDNS or unicast DNS.

       -d | --domain= DOMAIN
              Publish the service in the specified domain. If omitted the
              Avahi daemon will publish it in its default domain (usually
              .local).

       --subtype= SUBTYPE
              Register the service with an additional subtype in addition to
              the main type. DNS-SD subtypes have the form
              _anon._sub._ftp._tcp, where _anon is the identifier of the
              subtype and _ftp._tcp is the main type. You may pass this option
              multiple times to register the service with multiple subtypes.

       -f | --no-fail
              Don't fail if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait
              until it appears. If it disconnects, try to reconnect.

       -h | --help
              Show help

       -V | --version
              Show version information.
