OK, thank you. So, it will only work after the client asking has rebooted? That's going to be a pain. :( This also explains my nslookup results.

I always thought this was a server-side setting...

Thank you again, I've learned something new.

Exactly which page is this on? (I have lan.domain.com already explicitly set in several (all?) places. Also, I assume this is set within the server, and not as a setting passed to clients which would require a reboot.)

Hi.

I am having trouble getting DNSMasq and Unbound to behave the way I'm wanting.

I have a domain, and my ISP hosts my email (mail.domain.com) and website (www.domain.com). This works fine. I have named my internal network lan.domain.com. So, my NAS is nas.lan.domain.com. In order to resolve the name of any internal system I need to use the fqdn (like the example above, nas.lan.domain.com).

How do I get DNSMasq and Unbound to resolve using just the hostname, since every internal system is in the same lan.domain.com sub-domain? I shouldn't have to always use the fqdn for my internal systems. Or do I need to punt Unbound and install BIND?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Details:   - most systems have DNS reservations in DNSMasq
      - all internal systems, including the firewall, are in the lan.domain.com sub-domain
      - I have a mix of BSD, Linux, and Windows systems
      - I defined a DHCP range for the LAN interface to see if it would help
      - I tried an override in Unbound to see if it would help
      - lan.domain.com is set as a private domain in Unbound, again,  to see if it would help

Did I miss anything?
