Amahi Forums

Hi, linux newbie here - I'm looking to use bind to create "if-else" type logic in /etc/named.conf.

The reason why I want to do this is that in order to get my Roku working on my network, I'm using unblock-us.com (I'm in Australia) which involves changing the DNS servers to their specific ones. This breaks all the *.home.com references, which is annoying and takes away heaps of Amahi functionality.

I'd like to be able to use the Amahi DNS for everything internal (192.168.1.* and everything at *.home.com) and everything else use the unblock-us.com DNS servers.

Is this possible? Can someone point me in the right direction to learn how to do this?

I've found http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Centralised_Local_DNS but that isn't exactly what I'm looking to do.

Any help is appreciated.

This is a tricky area. You have to be careful what you modify on the HDA as you can break Amahi.

Did you end up solving this? I'm trying the same thing...

For anyone else that may have been searching for this - just change the DNS provider from the default to the unblock-us DNS using this wiki page https://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Changi ... S_provider. The unblock-us DNS IPs can be found on any of their setup pages eg at step 9 on this page http://support.unblock-us.com/customer/ ... les/291571

This can be done via the dashboard in Amahi 7.
