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 Shaun Skillin (home) schrieb: > Hi Peter, > You can always put multiple hosts in DNS, which point to the same IP.
