Response to: why not use mDNSResponder instead of mdNSProxyResponder?

I'm trying to write a redhat init script to turn the responder on and off. The daemonized version, how can I look up the PID to kill it (and therefore allow the script to respond to a "service rendezvous stop" command)?

    The quickest way is to just run killall mDNSProxyResponder to kill the job by name. You could also do something like kill `ps ax|grep mDNSProxyResponder|grep -v grep|awk '{print $1}'` (although the first one is much simpler...)
