#10975: Bonjour not working
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  codyalan  |     Owner:  datallah
     Type:  defect    |    Status:  new     
Component:  Bonjour   |   Version:  2.6.4   
 Keywords:            |

 Bonjour will not work on either of my windows computers.  Both have the
 bonjour for windows installed.  Both computers can see each other as well
 as my other computer which is a apple running ichat.  It seems that the
 computers are not resolving the names correctly.  When first trying to
 determine the problem I was getting different IPs when pinging
 computerName vs computerName.local.  I edited the hostsfiles so that when
 you ping computerName or computerName.local it now shows up with the
 correct 192.168.1.? address.  Before I edited the hostfiles I would try to
 ping computerName and get the 24... IP that you can see in the debug log.
 When you try to send a message, the debug log always indicates that is
 trying to connect to a 24.whatever IP.  I'm not sure why it's trying to
 resolve an IP or where it came up with the 24.whatever IP.  Thats not even
 my WAN IP.
