And lastly, how do I set up the server to do DNS just for my LAN - I
mean for example I want to be able to ssh from one machine to another
by the host names I've given them.
1. in /etc/default/dhcp3-server you can set what interface to run dhcp on.
2. 192.168.0.0/24 is fine
3. is a little bit more complex, see :
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/355
I've moved on to the bells and whistles now that I've got my network up again.
Now that I'm using DHCP I need some sort of DNS to locate the servers on my LAN
by name.
I see I already have avahi-daemon, which is mDNS according to man, running on my
workstation. I'm not sure when or why that got installed, although it isn't
configured for this situation because my DHCP-controlled IP address isn't able
to use it to locate named servers on my LAN (or at least the new server I just
set up where the DHCPD runs).
The dhcp.conf on my new server mentions DDNS which I haven't looked into, and
the link mentioned above from debian-administration.org concerns bind9 dns.
What is the most popular these days, or rather the most easily configured and
managed?
Thanks!
Adam
