WSD/LLMNR Discovery/Name Service Daemon

With Microsoft turning off SMB1 feature completely on Windows 10, any Samba shares on the local network become invisible to Windows 10 computers. That's due to the fact that SMB1 is required for Computer Browser service to function.

Newer Windows systems can use WSD (Web Services for Devices) to discover shares hosted on other Windows computers while Linux systems normally utilize mNDS/DNS-SD for service discovery. Microsoft is moving to support mDNS/DNS-SD, but not yet there.

The primary purpose of this project is to enable WSD on Samba servers so that network shares hosted on a Unix box can appear in Windows File Explorer / Network.

NOTE: Make sure there is no firewall rule blocking WSD multicast address 239.255.255.250 and ff02::c, protocol UDP port 3702. Unicast SOAP HTTP WS-Discovery responder listens on TCP port 3702.

LLMNR responder listens on multicast 224.0.0.252 / ff02::1:3 UDP port 5355 and unicast TCP port 5355.
