I tried adding my-dynamic-name.no-ip.com to the /etc/hosts line that my server is on and still get the same error. This also isn't the ideal solution for me because I would like to route different protocols to different machines. Ideally, I just want all the internal traffic on its way to my-dynamic-name.no-ip.com to route through my WAN interface. -- Travis -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
