[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 684009, member: 11094"] .local is actually the domain, like .com or .net. Without the .local it would try to resolve an internet name like smile.com. You could try adding a host record entry on all the computers on your LAN, but that's about it. It all comes down to DNS, and your ISP is most likely what you are using. Try editing /etc/hosts (be careful). [/QUOTE]
