Allow own DNS entries

Post by basti92 »

Hey!

It would be great to create own DNS entries like pc1.homelan using the webinterface. There should be an option to bind it either to an IP or a MAC.

Yes, good idea, this could be used to block websites as well as https if the dns is forced.

You can do this by edit the hosts file with shh (putty)
cd /etc
vi hosts
The vi editor is tricky if you don't know use it, here is a site that helped me out http://ss64.com/vi.html
A reboot is required after you edit the hosts file.
I tested 192.168.1.1 facebook.com it works like a charm. :D
