that makes avahi not more useful and does not change anything in
the security-flaw of blwoing out services to everyone so that
they even no longer need to do portscans

the only place where you need avahi is if you are surrounded
by a lot of apple-users to announce them the fileserver and
hence even they manage "connect to server"
