Hi Peter,
I think the issue is that you are using EFW to resolve DNS queries, however EFW 
only has DNS proxy capability, not DNS server capability.  Do you have another 
internal server, or something that can be used as a DNS server?  That is the 
location where you could put DNS entries.

Hi Shaun,
thanks for your reply.
I know it is possible but I do not know how to do it in the endian
webinterface.
I am using dhcp with fixed leases (so I do not want to use the hosts
file ) but there is no place to define any hostname at all.
How do I tell the local DNS to resolve the different names to IP Adresses.

thanks, regards
Peter
