Thanks for the links Andrew :-)
mdnsresponder seems to be some apple-inspired zero configuration network plug
and play thing:
http://developer.apple.com/macosx/rendezvous/index.html
Rendezvous enables automatic discovery of computers, devices, and services on
IP networks. Also known as zero-configuration networking, Rendezvous uses
industry standard IP protocols to allow devices to automatically find each
other without the need to enter IP addresses or configure DNS servers.
Rendezvous is an open protocol, which Apple has submitted to the IETF as part
of the ongoing standards-creation process. In order to provide a true
zero-configuration experience, Rendezvous requires that devices implement
three essential things. These devices must be able to
* allocate IP addresses without a DHCP server
* translate between names and IP addresses without a DNS server
* locate or advertise services without using a directory server
