Echoes "Listening for mDNS queries..." and then ends #1

Thank you for posting this package.

After installing and running the package on Windows 7, the program completes and exits immediately following the echo of "Listening for mDNS queries...". I am able to run it on other machines where the program runs perpetually, so it would appear to me that it is unable to stage its environment.

I get the same result if I specify the interface name or IP (v4) as the first CLI argument.

Any ideas?

I was attempting to use this package to add support for Kerberos over iOS that authenticates with a domain of something.local. I added support for SRV records, and although mdns-proxy receives and answers kerberos questions (following a kerberos sso authentication prompt), there appear to be no change on the iOS side such that it often times out or takes 15-20 seconds.

I staged the environment as follows:

  1. Configured a machine to run the mdns-proxy, connected it to a private wireless network and then connected it to the domain via a Cisco VPN client (so it could resolve). The client supports UDP. The wireless was swapped with a variety of devices to ensure not wireless related.
  2. Configured various iOS (9-10) devices for single sign-on via MDM management and connected it to the same wireless network. It also connects over a Cisco VPN client.
  3. Connected to a protected resource over http that has kerberos enabled resulting in an authentication prompt (password only). I drove this test using Safari, a native Swift and Xamarin app.
