Re: Not able to connect to roborio mDNS name on OSX

Interesting update -- we have found that:

When we disable avahi-daemon and enable NI's mDNSResponder, then the Driver Station software can no longer connect to the robot, but OSX can resolve the robot's .local address.

When we disable NI's mDNSResponder and enable avahi-daemon, then the Driver Station software can connect to the robot, but OSX cannot resolve the robot's .local address.

When we enable both, then the Driver Station software works, but OSX cannot resolve the robot's local address. Additionally, we get the errors in the /var/log/messages.
