NAME
     avahi-publish-service - Register an mDNS/DNS-SD service or host name or ad-
     dress mapping using the Avahi daemon

SYNOPSIS
     avahi-publish -s [options] name service-type port [TXT data ...]

     avahi-publish-service [options] name service-type port [TXT data ...]

     avahi-publish -a [options] host name address

     avahi-publish-address [options] host name address

DESCRIPTION
     Register  an  mDNS/DNS-SD	service  or  host name/address mapping using the
     Avahi daemon.

OPTIONS
     When calling in service registration mode, specify a  DNS-SD  service  name
     (e.g.  "Lennart's	Files"), a service type (e.g. _http._tcp) and an IP port
     number for the service, optionally followed by any  number  of  TXT  record
     strings on the command line. When calling in address/host name registration
     mode specify a fully qualified host name and an address (IPv4 or IPv6).

     -s | --service
	    Register  a  service.  avahi-publish-service is equivalent to avahi-
	    publish -s.

     -a | --address
	    Register an  address/host  name  mapping.  avahi-publish-address  is
	    equivalent to avahi-publish -a.

     -v | --verbose
	    Enable verbose mode.

     -H | --host= HOSTNAME
	    Specify  a	host name for this service, in case it doesn't reside on
	    the local host. This host name needs to be fully qualified	and  re-
	    solvable using mDNS or unicast DNS.

     -d | --domain= DOMAIN
	    Publish  the  service  in the specified domain. If omitted the Avahi
	    daemon will publish it in its default domain (usually .local).

     --subtype= SUBTYPE
	    Register the service with an additional subtype in addition  to  the
	    main type. DNS-SD subtypes have the form _anon._sub._ftp._tcp, where
	    _anon  is  the  identifier	of the subtype and _ftp._tcp is the main
	    type. You may pass this option multiple times to register  the  ser-
	    vice with multiple subtypes.

     -f | --no-fail
	    Don't  fail  if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait until
	    it appears. If it disconnects, try to reconnect.

     -h | --help
	    Show help

     -V | --version
	    Show version information.
