    I am needing to access a local LEMP server through its domain name for a PHP package that uses domain names in every link, making IP address usage not possible for this application.

    I can access the domain just fine from devices elsewhere on the www.

    pfSense manages two physically separate networks, but accessing the server with the domain brings up the "Potential DNS Rebind attack detected" warning page.

    The server has a static mapping configured with the domain name set in the configuration in Services->DHCP Server.

    I have the DNS Forwarder enabled and the Register DHCP static mappings in DNS forwarder is checked.

    What else do I need to do?

    pfSense 2.4.3-RELEASE (amd64) installed to PC on Samsung 860 EVO mSATA 256 GB SSD with Supermicro X11SBA-LN4F, Intel Pentium N3700, 4 GB RAM, 4 mobo 10/100/1000, 1 PCIe 10/100/1000 x4 NIC (HP NC364T), and APC Smart-UPS SMT1500.

        sigh

        I can't believe I missed that in the help page linked to from the DNS Forwarder page in the dashboard. I tried the second method, worked on the first try. Thank you.
