| 632263 | 2008-01-21 01:22:00 | shouldn't the router store host names and ip addresses? | Jimmy D (2061) | ||
| 632264 | 2008-01-21 01:39:00 | shouldn't the router store host names and ip addresses? Dont know about ALL routers. But this one stores the host names and ips of these. It doesnt matter if the ips are automatically assigned, or entered manually. But at the mo, these are static ips, because in order to forward ports for whatever, you have to have static ip addresses. Only way to find out, is to log into the router And see if the ips / hostnames are there |

| 632266 | 2008-01-21 01:49:00 | If your addresses are static, you the hosts file to input the computernames and IP addresses found at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc as shown # Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host 127.0.0.1 localhost |
