I am seeking solutions on how to resolve a host name to a static IP. I am not running a DHCP server so that's why I'm statically addressing IP addresses. I can set the static IP address perfect and everything runs great except when I try to ping myHostName it gives me this error
"Ping request could not find host myHostName. Please check the name and try again.".
A easy fix was to add this line myHostName 192.168.1.22 to the Hosts File in Windows, this obviously isn't doable as I would have to modify every devices Hosts file that's connected to my local network. I can't switch to using DHCP its IP addresses have to be statically assigned.
