I am not sure I am following [Doug] here on the on the RFC 1918
address space issue. Unless a person has set up an internal DNS
server resolving private address space, a person would either
typically specify the private address directly, or would use a hosts
file for internal usage.
Can you elaborate further please?
gifutiger said "DNS stands for "Directory Name Server" and has
nothing to do with your router."
Doug simply pointed out that that is incorrect on both points. DNS
stands for Domain Name System. And that the OP's issue (remember the
OP?) probably has everything to do with his local home/office NAT
router.
As for using local domain names on a LAN (over a non publically
routed address space),,, if you need assistance with how to set this
up with your router, then start a new thread and provide some
specific details about your configuration.
