I have added two IP addresses in the network config of one of my PCs, and I'm using those IP addresses to host separate sites in IIS:
I can browse those sites from around my network no problem by IP address.
What I'd like to do next is to have names for those sites, so that I'm not having to enter IP addresseses. I know that I can do this by adding to the hosts file, but this seems a little unsubtle.
Question: Can I propogate names for these non-machine based IP addresses by configuring something on the PC hosting the sites?
NOTE - Context:
I have a home network (so no Domain/DC/AD) Variety of machines in XP/Vista/7/OSX/IOS My central router is a Linksys WAG320N if that's any help
If any further background would help, just ask.
Thanks for the info - I was thinking DNS, and looked in my router cfg for one, but nothing was obvious (its not a cheap router either by home standards). I've got domains online already, but this is my internal test environment (I'm a web developer setting up my own project). I did try the host name config, but I guess without dns it's got nothing to go off. – Jon Egerton – 2011-04-19T13:34:17.800
