      Hello, im new on the forum but not new in pfsense; )
      I want to install squid+squidguard+squidreport. I want to monitor users what site's they are using. I need to add a local dns in pfsense of my lan network to resolve ip to dns name. I cant ping from lan on pfsense using local dns name. I added local dns serwer to the general setup, trying add local dns server to dns resolver as mydomain and dns serwer ip address. It isn't working. Can You help me with that? Please; ) :P

        No idea what are you doing. There are two DNS servers installed by default - DNS Forwarder a.k.a. dnsmasq and DNS Resolver a.k.a. unbound. (There is also a bind package, plus possible others.) What more servers you need? What did you configure how? "It isn't working" is not a useful problem description either.

            Did you notice the host overrides section in the config? (If the boxes are getting DHCP from pfSense, then just tick the Register DHCP leases in the DNS Resolver/Forwarder, and /Register DHCP static mappings in the DNS Resolver/Forwarder.)
