Re: ghost hostname

Found it.
It was in /etc/hosts, don't know how it got in there.
Anyway I made a copy of original, then deleted the line listing 172.16.0.21 Brother
Now Nslookup only shows the one IP address for Brother.

Re: ghost hostname

I have had a play with nslookup both on Gargoyle and on a pc, and it seems that Gargoyle is definitely storing the two IP's with brother as the hostname. But no idea where.
I am wondering is there a way to do the equivalent of
ipconfig /flushdns on Gargoyle?

Re: ghost hostname

I tried "cat /proc/net/arp", it listed the 172.16.0.21 ip address but the mac address was different to the one for the brother printer. So I am guessing that's not the cause. I found a hosts.sh file in the WWW folder, thinking that's the script that generates the connected host page, and h...

Re: ghost hostname

So was it in either of those files when you got it to appear again? No, which made sense since I had set the IP as a static IP on the VM, so I wouldn't expect them to appear in DHCP files. I had a look in other files also, looking for 172.16.0.21 or Brother, but none of the files I tried looking in...

Re: ghost hostname

It may have cleared out by now It wasn't in /tmp/dhcp.leases and I couldn't find /tmp/dhcpv4configleases.gargoyle I'll have to try and get 172.16.0.21 allocated again to to see if it come up with the hostname Brother. Ok I set a VM IP to 172.16.0.21 and sure enough, in the connected hosts screen, ho...

ghost hostname

Weird issue I noticed recently. I connected a Brother printer to my network and it was allocated an IP address via DHCP (in this case it was 172.16.0.21 and the Brother hostname was listed under connected hosts), I later changed the IP address via assign static IP address under DHCP. I rebooted thin...

Re: Force DHCP leases to expire?

Came looking for an answer to this question myself, the best I have come up with is to reboot the router and reboot the device that has changed IP. If you want it to get a specific IP, static assign the IP to the devices MAC address and do the above process.

Is there any method for downloading those documents to my PC by means of WinSCP or other chance?
Select the file in WinSCP and click the download button, which is above the file list.

Re: Port Forwards between versions

I did a test rule in 1.13 and compared it to the 1.12 rule, I did not see option family 'ipv4' for some reason. I have just done the test rule again, and I do see it now. Strangely the port forwards still worked without it. By worked my web server was still reachable, through the 1.13 gargoyle. I al...
