I think you're actually on the right track Peter. If EFW could support the
function of being authoritative for an internal zone, that would be great. It
can probably do it, I just haven't tried to load BIND on it yet. Of course,
that brings up the question of how much a firewall is supposed to do, but I
kind of like the Swiss Army Knife approach.

...ouch, you are absolutely right.
I indeed have another machine running an DNS server and were thinking about
migrating onto the endian machine.
Should have had a closer look. 8)
Thanks again and sorry for bothering

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

Hi Peter,
You can always put multiple hosts in DNS, which point to the same IP. I
think the question is - who resolves names to IP for the hosts? If it's
DNS, then use DNS, if it's a hosts file, then use that.

Hi there,
how can I assign one (or better multiple) hostname(s) to a
PC/mac-address using dhcp with a static lease?
Is it possible to do that without using /etc/hosts (or modifying
dhcpd.conf by hand)?
thanks in advance,
P. Pellegrini
