Wikidot Open Source

Hi Ed,

You need to instruct your home machines, that *.dawiki is 192.168.0.108. You can do it either by adding a proper line to /etc/hosts (in windows somewhere under c:/windows) or by adding such entries to your DNS server (possibly a router or something like this) or by setting up a fresh DNS server (possibly pdnsd — it reads /etc/hosts of the machine it runs and serves it to all clients that connects to it) and adding the new server to DNS servers used by workstation (/etc/resolv.conf in Unix or Linux).

Hope it helps, if you have some further questions, feel free to ask. I would be grateful if you manage to complete the task and write a complete HOWTO on it.

Hint: pdnsd acts as a proxying/relaying DNS server as well, so you can set any working for you DNS-es to the machine with wikidot. Add some entries do /etc/hosts on it and then use ONLY a wikidot machine (192.168.0.108) as a DNS server (this setting may be set with DHCP) for any machine inside your Home Network.
