      I have a PFsense 2.0RC1 box as a gateway to the internet and a windows box that acts as a domain controller and DNS-server. PFsense is configured to use the DC's DNS. DNS resolution is working on all the clients in our network and from the CLI on the PFsense box. It's not working -for internal IP's- from the PFsense GUI (http://pfsense/diag_dns.php) however. I've also noticed that when clients use our squid proxy, internal IP's don't get resolved either. DNS Rebind Check has been disabled.

      Can anyone tell me what's going on?

        Hi…

        that is strange...
        If you have the DNS setup and the DNS server is on same inside LAN subnet is it possible the pfSense is using outside DNS gateway server?
        I also know Squid can cause naming issues but not sure if this is the issue either as I only ran it on one setup I was using and had name resolution through the gateway... I never checked the DNS on the internal lan as it was a small network with one static IP database.

        Best Regards;
