I can connect to a customer's lan using the openvpn gui client, and ping any pc on their lan by name.
Do you have the DNS Proxy enabled? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jae Stutzman Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2007 1:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Efw-user] Ping local Green interface PCs by hostname I've looked around the net, tried a bunch of things, but still nothing. According to dnsmasq docs, adding this line: dhcp-leasefile=/var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases to the dnsmasq.conf file will get dnsmasq to pull the lease clients into the dns for resolving. However, it seems to be an old option that is being depreciated, the service fails to start when that line is added. All I want to do is be able to address local computers on my lan by name instead of ip address. dnsmasq has a built in dhcp server which is not being used. ISC Dhcpd is more feature rich, but it seems like it would rather communicate with bind. So what is the story? Any solutions? BTW, i can't remember what IPCop used...but this feature worked on it.
