AirPrint and ReadyNASOS6

Hey, I've been trying to get my ReadyNAS to operate as a 'print server' for my local network, including with AirPrint functionallity. I have a Brother wifi printer (so it's not connected via USB)...

So, no one can verify this problem with Avahi?

Or noone but me is interested in getting AirPrint working?! :P

I at least expected a reply from one of the Netgear employees acknowledging that their software has an issue which can cause a denial of service....

I think I found the source of the problem and reported it to NETGEAR together with a suggested solution.

Sorry for the late reply.

Glad you found the source of the issue :)

Any chance you can provide some more detail? What was the problem? Is there a bug entry somewhere that I can read?

Cheers.

    The MD5sum of the avahi-daemon binary is the same on 6.3.5 as it is on the newly released 6.4.0, so my guess is that this issue has not been fixed.
    
    I suspect we won't know until WhoCares can detail what the actual bug was and where the fix applies.
    
    I don't currently have a test box available to replicate my original experiments, but you could have a go yourself and let us know :)
