      Hello,

      Just had a question regarding DNS.
      If i was to deploy pfsense on my dedicated web server.

      is there any way that i can provide a dns address that my clients from around the world could add to their PC or device to receive the pfsense settings?

      for example on my dedicated web server with pfsense i activate the antivirus clamav feature, than my clients in different locations with my DNS would also benefit from antivirus on their computers through DNS/ or proxy service - whichever works. Not sure if such a setup has been done before, maybe BIND dns configuration needed. Advice and help would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks

        "If i was to deploy pfsense on my dedicated web server."

        What?  Do you mean putting your webserver "behind" pfsense box?

        I would not suggest running a webserver off of pfsense other than very minor sites if you had no other choice.
