Re: How to set your domain adress



 What you are proposing merely changes for that one computer.  It still
doesn't
help for all the other computer on the intranet.  It is always possible to
update each computer's host file, but I think there should be some sort of a
DNS server on a moderately size intranet.

 But either way, Clark, the changes are not to the Pi3Web serve.
