[avahi] Is it possible to customize "#define AVAHI_DEFAULT_TTL_HOST_NAME" and "#define AVAHI_DEFAULT_TTL", rather than embedding them "statically" in the code?

Hi all.

Just found about /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf.
That would do it !!! (of course after patching avahi to read-in the two new

Will be back soon with a patch :)

Ajay
