Re: DNS questions

Go into Setup - Networking - Static IP's you can set a static IP in their for you're router. NSlookup works for me no problem. From my ubuntu system- --- nslookup test.com Server: 192.168.1.45 Address: 192.168.1.45#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: test.com Address: 204.12.0.50 ------ From Windows ...

Re: Amahi Guest OS - XEN Source

I run amahi under esxi, along with pfsense as my router. Works as a great setup. I have amahi on my main network, and web server on my virtual DMZ network works great.
