Russ;

I got these results:

~~~~~~
charles at charles-ThinkPad-W500:/etc$ avahi-browse -a

+  wlan0 IPv6 charles-ThinkPad-W500 [00:21:6a:b2:d5:f2]     Workstation 
          local

+  wlan0 IPv4 charles-ThinkPad-W500 [00:21:6a:b2:d5:f2]     Workstation 
          local
~~~~~~~~~~~~

I do not see an ip-address there-in.
