my MBP's .local hostname is no longer resolvable
Hi, I am on Yosemite 10.10.1 and have recently run into an issue where my laptop's '.local' address isn't resolvable as follows:
---
MacBook-Pro:bin xxxx$ ping `hostname`
ping: cannot resolve MacBook-Pro.local: Unknown host
--
I've checked here and stack overflow and have not seen this specific issue. The only thing that was close was checking 'scutil --get HostName'. That was returning a blank result so I '--set' that value to 'MacBook-Pro.local' but I am still getting the same inability to resolve the host. It's my understanding that .local's get resolved via Bonjour, so perhaps it's not properly advertising the local machine (to itself). Has anyone encountered this?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
