I installed Gentoo in virtual machine using Apple Virtualization framework. In linux then I installed avahi, configured the network in Bridge mode. Now I want to connect from this virtual machine to other computer in local network. I can see other computers on the local network, and connect with them using local IP address. But for some reason these are not detected using .local domain. I run avahi-browse -at|grep PS3 and it detected 4 entries for this computer:

IPV4 _ssh._tcp local
IPV6 _ssh._tcp local
IPV4 _sftp-ssh._tcp local
IPV6 _sftp-ssh._tcp local

Also avahi-resolve -n PS3.local correctly detects IPv6 address of this machine. So why cannot I connect with the computer using PS3.local name?

Also avahi-resolve -n PS3.local correctly detects IPv6 address of this machine.

If you connect to that IP address, does it work?

That should tell you whether this is a problem specific to local. name resolution or a problem with IP connectivity.
