Unable to browse machine via hostname


Recommended Posts

When I first setup unraid I was able to browse the machine via hostname. It now only works via IP. Not entirely sure when it quit.

 

Some things I've tried

  • Reboots
  • Added Dynamix Local Master
  • Cleared my cache
  • Multiple browsers and machines/devices
  • Changing hostnames
  • Unplugged ethernet cables to see if ip was being used by something else
  • Switched from AMD Ryzen to Intel i9 (different motherboards/cpu/ram)

 

The network is All Ubiquity Unifi. Everything on the same network. 

 

Pinging hostname results in unreachable but dir IP works fine

Any ideas?

Interesting enough just found out if I ping unraid.local and put that in the browser it works. How can I remove the .local part as it used to work without it?

 

C:\Users\Fiala06>ping unraid.local -4

Hey! I not entirely sure if this has something to do with it, I'm a web developer and recall that not long ago google somehow start owning the .dev domain, that fact resulted in a local dev issue for a lot of web apps teams, some refs can be found really easy on the internet, (for example: https://developers.slashdot.org/story/17/11/30/1722233/wondering-why-your-internal-dev-web-app-has-stopped-working), so maybe Unraid guys implemented that feature or maybe the DNS software behind the scene got patched and now requires the specific .local, in my case is the same I need to use DOMAIN.local to get to the Unraid web UI
