pyzeroconf unicast question

Hi:

I have been using pyzeroconf to register and discover services on a 
local network using the default multicast support.  Now, I would like to 
register a service on a remote node and discover that service from my 
local machine.  Neither machine is behind a firewall.  This sort of 
thing is supported by zeroconf in general (as described in chapter 5 of 
the Zero Configuration Networking book).  However, I am not sure that it 
is supported by the pyzeroconf implementation.  It looks to me as if I 
might make some small changes to the code in Zeroconf.py and get it to 
go, but I have been unsuccessful thus far and am not totally sure that 
changes are even necessary.  I googled for examples of this, but only 
found examples using the 'local' designation for services.

If you can provide any pointers to specific examples, I would very much 
appreciate seeing them.

Thanks.
