So I have a basic network set up now via my Asus RT-N56U wireless router
with updated firmware (which happens to have parental controls too!!).
The one thing it seems to be missing is name resolution. I can't ping
any other boxes on the network by name with the firewall as my gateway
and name resolver.
The obvious short term solution is to add my boxes into my /etc/hosts
file. That only affects my local box though. So I'm looking at setting
up a DNS server on my network and thought I'd ask here for tips and such
first. (my previous firewall - Untangle - has failed on me, but allowed
me to add HOSTS entries on the firewall that would be used for internal
resolution...)
Is Bind still the best DNS server? Is there another/simpler name
resolution solution I'm missing?
Thanks for any tips.
Shawn
