How to disable avahi daemon in Ubuntu
I want to disable the avahi daemon permanently in Ubuntu. Please can you let me know how this can be achieved. There is no System->Administration->Services in my Ubuntu.

Go to Command line and type
sudo gedit /etc/default/avahi-daemon
and change the line
AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=1
to
AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=0
and save the file. And then, in the command line type
sudo gedit /etc/init/avahi-daemon.conf
and change the line
start on (filesystem and started dbus)
to
start on (never and filesystem and started dbus)
This will prevent avahi from getting started automatically when the system is running.
