        *Ok, I didn't know what mDNS meant, still not sure I understand it.*

        *I have a wireless network including a printer, a Mac, and two
        Windows 2000 boxes in addition to my FC6 computers.  Is this
        telling me that they are all trying to get DNS from this
        computer?  I don't have port 5353 open on my firewall and
        Firestarter often reports a number of them blocked?*
