As a matter of fact, my router finds out the names of windows machines it serves via dhcp.
What is your router?
A TP-Link. TD-W8970.
Is it flashed with WRT? http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/td-w8970 Which version? Its a very nice device but I don't see anything in the spec that make me think its DHCP server communicates with a DNS server. If this is a windows only then that has nothing to do with the DHCP server issuing changes to a Dynamic DNS server as an earlier post by Bernard Voelker implied. I've set that up for a Linux based DHCP/DBS and it requires the DHCP server knowing the cryptographic key for the DNS server. I don't see anything in the w8970 spec that indicates this capability. Souping up names for Windows machines that are broadcasting their names and addresses, as I mentioned earlier, is quite another matter. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
