Hi there guys i have access with a local Vicidial on my local network, but i access it by htt://1.0.0.0.2/vicidial/welcome.php is it possible to replaced the IP address part with a Name or a local hostname somehow not exactly a real domain since all the PC on the call area are not allowed for internet access, Thanks

1) Since you did not use an .iso installer for vici: It's best to include the installation instructions you used (link).

2) Please consider using a standards-based local network. This would be either 192.168.X.X or 10.X.X.X. This protects you from unusual problems/conflicts with real public IPs (and is why those "defined" local networks actually exist).

3) If you have a private network and that private network has a DHCP server handing out IP addresses, it also hands out DNS server assignments. Then, of course, you can have a DNS server on the local network. What you describe is precisely the job of a DNS server. It converts domain names to IP addresses. So if one of your workstation browsers tried to find "dialer1", the DNS server would convert that to "10.0.0.1" or whatever the local IP is.

4) Alternately, these can be hard-coded into the /etc/hosts file of linux workstations or the c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file on Windows workstations: But that is a bit counterintuitive since the work needed to manually put those values in each of those files AND go back and change them all if you ever need to is why DNS servers exist. To avoid that manual-on-every-machine complexity.

5) None of which is related to Vicidial, of course, but is still a Support question and not a "General Discussion". moving to the support board.

Yes that is possible as long as u have a local DNS server. or u may want to edit the host file of every computer that would convert mydialer.domain to 1.0.0.0 IP

Actually that's a very good point. I've even had a couple PUBLIC domain servers that would allow settings DNS to a private IP address. We had a couple servers that were pointed to 192.168.1.X by using DNS at ... Godaddy? I forget where it was. But that was even free. Before we began using our own DNS servers, of course, after we got into email servers (many of which, oddly enough, required local DNS resolution during setup).

Some ROUTERS will even manage this for you if you configure them properly. Some can even do so automatically when the server registers via DHCP.
