I have a mix of *nix and Windows XP hosts behind my router and none are
configured to have FQDNs. The router has all the IPs and hostnames in its
/etc/hosts and the clients have their hosts files blank except for the
typical localhost entry. All the *nix hosts are able to query and resolve
local host names. However, the Windows machines all report back
non-existant domain and never resolve. Does anyone have any idea why? One
XP system is statically configured and connected by wire. The other system
is using DHCP over a wireless link. dnsmasq is running on a Linksys WRT54G
router with the latest OpenWRT firmware.
Thanks for any help,
