Me too... personally I find the Gnome 2 UI really difficult to get to 
grips with, so don't use it.

Apparently the latest kde has dnssd:/ but I haven't tried it.

On a Unix client that'd expand to every file in the directory, causing 
some confusion!

It's really geared towards SSPI, so passwords shouldn't be needed.. 
however 'cvs -d . login' will work.

One of my personal gripes about zeroconf is all the APIs are 
incompatible with each other.  I had to implement the server 
registration twice - once for Apple, once for Howl.  If I support 
another one it's another implementation...
