Possibly, but my firewall ZoneAlarm talks about "DNS" Lookup when you put computers into the trusted zone. It can lookup my 2nd pc bunt NOT the SqueezeBox. So why does the SqueezeBox not work like other PC's or Macs. Note that my brother inlaw has a Belkin router that displays the name of his laptop. This implies that the router is operating a local DNS. My router does the same thing. Where software requires hardcoded DNS server entries, the router DNS is used. The router knows about my ISP's DNS settings. -- Declan Moriarty ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Declan Moriarty's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23670 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65021 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
