Greetings,
I have apache2 installed on my local machine with a bunch of
virtual hosts that I use for test and development of html,
wordpress, etc. It works fine to access the virt hosts
locally, but I want to access them from other systems on my
local network; windows/IE of various versions, smart phones,
tablets, laptops, etc.
They all can access my base host name because my DSL
modem/router has DHCP and DNS in it and when it sets up an
address with DHCP it puts an entry in its DNS and everything
is fine. (All systems on the local net use the modem/router
for dns.) But nothing like this happens with the virtual hosts!
I was thinking that I could setup a nameserver on my machine
with enries in it for the virtual hosts and have my local
network address in the list of nameservers in my
modem/router, and that is where I need the help.
I have installed bind9, running on buster. So how do I set
up the name server and populate it with the info for my
virtual hosts? Pointers to forums, cookbooks, etc. would be
appreciated as well as hints and tips!
TIA!
