* Add mdns name configuration optionKevin Anderson2017-12-081-1/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the mdns name configuration variable to control the mdns hostname. The default is to use the NETBIOS name of the system to match previous versions which is typically the hostname in all capitals. A value of mdns can be provided to defer the hostname to the mdns library. With the recent patch to support time machine being merged this patch allows for a user to configure the server name that is advertised to be lower cased through Avahi advertisements.
