I have done a fair bit of searching and have found a few similar situations but no resolution. Wink

Has anyone worked out how to get the DNS proxy to provide details of the DHCP clients?

For example, if I have a DHCP client named fred that has been allocated an address of 192.168.54.2 and another client named jane that has been allocated an address of 192.168.54.5, then if I am on fred and try to ping jane using "ping jane" I would expect fred to ask for some name resolution and be given jane's address (192.18.54.5) and the ping to start.

What  am getting is a total lack of name resolution.

If I try "ping www.google.com.au" I get an IP address and the ping runs fine. 

If I ping a local server that I have added to the known servers list I get name resolution.

At the moment there is no value in using DHCP at all.  The only way I can find any computer on the local network is to give it a static address and put it on the known servers list. Angry


Any help please.

I have DNS Proxy active and Transparent on GREEN, and Under Services => DHCP Server, I can see all my dhcp clients listed under the 'Hostname' column.
I can also ping any machine from any other machine using the hostname.
All machines are on the Green network.
