Hostnames not resolving

Hi there

Just installed OPNSense and must say I love this!

But having terrible problems say if I made a host with myhostname.mydomain.net and it has an ip address of 192.168.1.2 for arguments sake, but how would I get that resolving so if I were to run a web server for example it'd resolve to that IP address when typing that into the address of a browser?

I was formerly running on PFsense but using the old legacy DHCP Kea thing think its called.

I'd love to know how to get this working as I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong, think have all the registering hostnames checked in the configs but it wont do that if I use the dig command or nslookup in windows.

Can someone help me please?

Thanks ever so much.

If you are using the default Unbound DNS service, set it here "Services -> Unbound DNS -> Overrides"
Every morning, I wake up and check the Forbes list first. If I'm not on it, I go to work.
