For More Information - Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE SERVER 10 SP2 - INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION Installation Manual

TIP: YaST and SLP
Some services brokered by YaST, such as an installation server or YOU
server, perform this registration automatically when you activate SLP in the
module dialogs. YaST then creates registration files for these services.
Static Registration with /etc/slp.reg
The only difference from the procedure with /etc/slp.reg.d is the grouping
of all services within a central file.
Dynamic Registration with slptool
If a service should be registered for SLP from proprietary scripts, use the slptool
command line front-end.
