+README.SBo (avahi)
+
+First, be sure you have an "avahi" user and group. Do this *before*
+you install the avahi package. We recommend uid/gid of 214, but
+adjust as needed for your system. Something like this should suffice:
+ # groupadd -g 214 avahi
+ # useradd -u 214 -g 214 -c "Avahi" -d /dev/null -s /bin/false avahi
+
+Ask DBUS to re-read its policies; this only has to be done once:
+ # /etc/rc.d/rc.messagbus reload
+ OR
+ # kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/dbus/pid)
+
+Now start the Avahi daemon:
+ # /etc/rc.d/rc.avahidaemon start
+
+Optionally start the unicast DNS configuration daemon:
+ # /etc/rc.d/rc.avahidnsconfd start
+
