Is there a way to set up a php page to act as a name server under windows? I dont have named etc on that OS. I was thinking of maybe having PHP read from the port used for DNS services and recording the MAC address of the machine in a dateabse for example and linking this to a name i.e. server.mydomain It would need to work on the Windows platform and be compatible with whaterver Windows uses for DNS stuff. The process would be as follows: 1: client tries to access server.mydomain in a browser window 2: a request is sent to the server asking it to find the IP address of the machine called server.mydomain 3: this IP address is then sent back to the client and connecting it to say 192.168.1.9 Do you think this could be done?
