SLP (RFC 2608) allows searching your LAN for services and works either peer-to-peer or with one or more directory servers. Unlike other browsing methods it can also work over several subnets (at least if your router can route multicast traffic). You can get the library and instructions (you need to run a small daemon on each system that announces services) at www.openslp.org. This patch adds: - a generic class for registering SLP services - a class to find your computer's LAN and non-public Internet address (replaces the code in configuration_hostname.cpp, should be more reliable and work better on non-Linux-machines) - generic SLP support for kinetd - SLP announcements when krfb/kinetd is open for uninvited connections (invited connections will not be announced) If OpenSLP is not installed configure should disable the feature. The code uses the SLP API as specified in RFC 2614 and it would be interesting to know whether it also supports the SLP library that ships with Solaris - maybe the configure script has to be tweaked for this...

KDE Desktop Sharing (krfb) ========================== KDE Desktop Sharing (krfb) is a small server for the RFB protocol, better known as VNC. Unlike most other Unix/Linux RFB servers, KRfb allows you to share your X11 session instead of creating a new X11 session. It was originally based on x0rfbserver (ttp://www.hexonet.de/software/x0rfbserver/), but there is not much code of x0rfbserver left. Since version 0.6 it uses libvncserver (http://libvncserver.sf.net) as backend.
