I patched BackupPC_dump to look for bonjour clients. My apologies if this is not the most correct way to do so.

What this allows is:

If you have an apple client with hostname foo and Bonjour name foo.local, you can enter the client's name as "foo" and backuppc_dump will auto-detect its bonjour name.

This makes it so that your clients don't have to run an smb service if you don't want to without redundantly entering .local for all your clients.
