      Hi

      Let's say i have a .com domain i want to use here, i installed pfsense with this domain so all my computers are in "home.mydomain.com" now i would like this to work from the outside to so that if i surf to "home.mydomain.com" i get to the router interface, i enabled port 80 in the firewall but i get just "potential dns rebind attack" why? :/

        What is the name of the pfSense itself?
        If your domain is
        home.mydomain.com and the name of your pfSense is "router" then you would have to access:
        router.home.mydomain.com

        We do what we must, because we can.

          that's corrrect it's called "router"
          (let's say my domain is rizzler.com
          So, if i redirect the subdomain "router.home.rizzler.com" towards the pfsense machine it should work then ? cause o have only redirected  "home.rizzler.com" to my router's ip as "rizzler.com" itself is currently hosting a website.

            router.rizzler.com would work also…

            Though is rizzler.com hosted on this same network?

              no, i have rizzler.com on godaddy so im using their DNS manager to create subdomains etc.

                Because that's not a hostname configured as one the firewall should answer on. See System>Advanced, you can fill in your additional name there. Or change the system's hostname to be what its real FQDN is.
