[Bug testsuite/10922] New: server.exp produces lots of failures with default install

[mjw at redhat dot com]

With a default Fedora Rawhide (F12 Beta) install:
[mark@hermans ~]$ rpm -q avahi-tools
avahi-tools-0.6.25-5.fc12.i686
[mark@hermans ~]$ /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon status
Avahi daemon is running

There are lots of failures:
[mark@hermans testsuite]$ sudo make installcheck RUNTESTFLAGS=server.exp

[Bug testsuite/10922] server.exp produces lots of failures with default install

------- Additional Comments From mjw at redhat dot com  2009-11-09 19:38 -------
The issue was that by default port 5353 (Multicast DNS) is not allowed. You have
to manually adjust the firewall to allow UDP traffic. It would be good if the
server.exp testcase (or stap-server/client) detected this issue and gave a hint.
