Second server added but can't access using <hostname>.local

[matthewboh]

I just added a second server and everything works fine, but I want it to broadcast it's name on the LAN so I can connect to it using <hostname>.local

It's getting all the network connections, I can even get out to the Internet - I can also look up the IP address using nmap - where should I be looking for documentation, etc?

Thanks

The service responsible for 'zero configuration' (.local domain) is called avahi.

To check if it is installed:

apt-cache policy avahi-daemon

To see if it's running:

ps aux | grep avahi

To restart the service:

 sudo service avahi-daemon restart

Here's more detail information.

Hope it helps.
Regards.
