I have two subnets with different devices that announce themselves using the Bonjour protocol. Since these messages can be only broadcasted in the same subnetwork I installed the Avahi daemon. I enabled the reflector option and restarted the server but it won't work.
I must note that what I have is a machine running Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS with two interfaces, each connected to one of the two subnets. When the daemon start I can check with 'avahi-browser -ac' that my server is able to see every device in the two subnets, but for some reason the packages are not broadcasted.
Here it follows my config file:
[server]
use-ipv4=yes
use-ipv6=yes
allow-interfaces=p1p1,p3p1
ratelimit-interval-usec=1000000
ratelimit-burst=1000
[wide-area]
enable-wide-area=yes
[publish]
[reflector]
enable-reflector=no
[rlimits]
rlimit-core=0
rlimit-data=4194304
rlimit-fsize=0
rlimit-nofile=768
rlimit-stack=4194304
rlimit-nproc=3
And a small extract from the syslog (which to me seems everything's fine):

I even tried enabling IPv4 forwarding between the interfaces (via /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward) but I'm not able to see all the devices in the different subnets.
Thanks!
