MDNSD(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MDNSD(8)NAME
mdnsd -- Multicast and Unicast DNS daemon
SYNOPSIS
mdnsd
DESCRIPTION
mdnsd (also known as mDNSResponder on some systems) is a daemon invoked at boot time to implement Multicast DNS and DNS Service Discovery.
On Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), mdnsd is also the system-wide Unicast DNS Resolver.
mdnsd listens on UDP port 5353 for Multicast DNS Query packets. When it receives a query for which it knows an answer, mdnsd issues the
appropriate Multicast DNS Reply packet.
mdnsd also performs Unicast and Multicast DNS Queries on behalf of client processes, and maintains a cache of the replies.
mdnsd has no user-specifiable command-line argument, and users should not run mdnsd manually.
LOGGING
There are several methods with which to examine mdnsd's internal state for debugging and diagnostic purposes. The syslogd(8) logging levels
map as follows:
Error - Error messages
Warning - Client-initiated operations
Notice - Sleep proxy operations
Info - Informational messages
By default, only log level Error is logged.
A SIGUSR1 signal toggles additional logging, with Warning and Notice enabled by default:
# pkill -USR1 mdnsd
A SIGUSR2 signal toggles packet logging:
# pkill -USR2 mdnsd
A SIGINFO signal will dump a snapshot summary of the internal state to /var/log/system.log:
# pkill -INFO mdnsd

HISTORY
The mdnsd daemon first appeared in Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar).
Also available from the Darwin open source repository (though not officially supported by Apple) are mdnsd daemons for other platforms,
including Mac OS 9, Microsoft Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, and other POSIX systems.
BUGS
mdnsd bugs are tracked in Apple Radar component "mDNSResponder".

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).
