I'm using Fedora 16.

I shut down NetworkManager and wpa_supplicant (using service commands), but when I try:

sudo service avahi-daemon stop

or

sudo kill pid

it appears again instantly! How can I figure which process is still using avahi?

The command

systemctl stop avahi-daemon.service 

should work.

I tried that but it didn't work the only way was to disable it and restart – cap10ibraim Nov 4 '11 at 20:34

@Niels could you edit your answer to include a bit more info about how your solution works? – nhinkle Nov 4 '11 at 20:40

OP posted this also in the Fedora Forums here.

The solution is to disable the service altogether:

systemctl disable avahi-daemon.service

That worked for me.
