HOW TO : Resolve local hostname with local domain name (home.arpa) ?

[ThePiloo]

I read carefully this page https://pymumu.github.io/smartdns/en/config/resolv-dnsmasq-lease/

Unfortunately, I add "dnsmasq-lease-file" parameters ; and it works partially -> request "mylocaldevicename, type = A, class = IN" is correctly responded but not when I made request local hostname with local domain name (e.g. mylocaldevicename.home.arpa)

Any help would be appreciated !

You can try this:

mdns-lookup yes
nameserver /home.arpa/mdns

Thanks for the reply ; But it doesn't work (I just tried).
A slightly difference ; before adding your lines request was forwarded to 2 authority records (prisoner.iana.org & a.gtld-servers.net)
With your lines -> only one authority record (a.gtld-servers.net).
But unfortunately no use of dnsmasq lease file ;( for my local domain (home.arpa)
Any another idea ?

[pymumu]

# dns server for home.arpa
server x.x.x.x -e -g home
nameserver /home.arpa/home

[ThePiloo]

But I don't have a specific web server for "home.arpa" I just want SmartDNS resolve using DNSMasq leases (so I don't have x.x.x.x)

[pymumu]

The hostname in the dnsmasq lease file does not contain the local domain name, so smartdns cannot resolve when using the full domain name.
Expect to use mdns to resolve the full hostname. but this is possible for some systems.

他这个需求和 #861 #1113 是一样的。
比较简单的实现就是判断查询的域名后缀如果匹配到本地dns后缀（dhcp opiton 15）时去掉这个后缀，然后作为wins查询。mdns目前支持有限，尤其某些wifi环境或容器环境限制多播，以及windows的不完整支持

Ok ; I understand missing a parameter like "local-onldy" (dnsmasq) -> Add the domain to simple names in file /etc/hosts
#local-only domain(s) : queries in these domains are answered from /etc/hosts or DHCP only (no forward)

[PikuZheng]

maybe dhcp-fqdn if your clients support dhcp option 81

Try latest code

local-domain home.arpa
