Can across this thread about buying chicken dinner.

Was humored to read it and then I thought HEY, there's a Donation link now. I can buy the COS devs a chicken dinner via Paypal.

Except I can't find the link anymore! Where is it?

Ok, my bad. I was sure I had tested it before I posted...

Try:
/usr/clearos/framework/htdocs/wpad.dat

Do files in that directory load in your browser?

DaveBurkholder created a new topic LAN IP not automatically populated in DNS Server in the forums.
Hi everyone. In the 5.2 days, the relationship between the Local DNS Server and the LAN interface was a bit tricky/buggy.

If changing the LAN IP was required, if learned that the way to make sure that the /etc/hosts file was updated was to delete the LAN interface and then recreate. But the LAN IP doesn't often change, so not a big problem.

Now, in COS 6.2, the DNS Server isn't a default app, which is very strange. Worse, it is totally unaware of the LAN interface & machine hostname. If you don't create the entries manually, the "hostname -i" command very helpfully gives you argle bargle like 67.215.65.132 (if you're using OpenDNS) because the COS's own hostname doesn't resolve.

If you delete & recreate the LAN interface, the /etc/hosts file & DNS Server app are totally ignorant of the change.

What's the reason for these changes, and why can't the DNS Server be a default app?
