10.4: How to disable Bonjour

Oops, never mind. Bonjour is greyed out in Directory Access so you can't disable it that way.

10.4: How to disable Bonjour
Authored by: lolopb on Jul 18, '05 01:16:28PM

And anyway, what you have in directory access is service discovery, not service announcing.

For example, if you uncheck SMB in Directory Access, and then go to the Network icon in the sidebar, you won't see SMB servers anymore.

But, if you had enabled SMB File Sharing, you could still be accessed and seen from other computer with SMB.

10.4: How to disable Bonjour

this is incorrect, if you do
[code]dns-sd -B _workstation._tcp[/code]
from the command line every single Mac OS X machine will reply...who needs OS fingerprinting!

I am also searching for a way to disable this short of disabling bonjour too
