Yeh sorry about that ... I wrote it so quickly and then shot it off. Yes, I did mean "can't" I've had the same issues with running it at home. As you say, it bypasses and that's the only way I've been able to get DNS to work. I tried using the Ping from the WebGUI but it couldn't resolve the name. Cheers Phil PS. Sorry Fred, didn't mean to send it just to you originally. -----Original Message----- From: Fred Wright [mailto:fw at well dot com] Sent: Tuesday, 19 August 2003 3:39 PM To: m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Subject: Re: [m0n0wall] DNS Issues On Tue, 19 Aug 2003, Phil Greenway wrote: > I really like M0n0wall ... its nice and easy to use.

Meaning an ISP DNS server IP (e.g. 203.2.75.2), I presume. Have you tested this by using a hostname in a ping (e.g. www.mpx.com.au)? > I'm not sure how to get it to work from here. > > The only way, I've been able to get it to work, is to hard code the DNS > servers on the Workstations. > > ie. change 192.168.10.122 to 203.2.75.2 (our ISP's DNS) Which of course bypasses the DNS forwarder altogether.
