I’ve wanted to install pihole so I can access my machines via DNS, currently I have names for my machines in my /etc/hosts files across some of my machines, but that means that I have to copy the configuration to each machine independently which is not ideal.
I’ve seen some popular options for top-level domain in local environments are *.box or *.local.
I would like to use something more original and just wanted to know what you guys use to give me some ideas.
I use .home as my internal network DNS name. I tend to name my servers and network based off movie-AI stuff; i.e., VIKI, Jarvis, Skynet, Mother, etc.
I have registered domains as well, I am just waiting on my fiber to finally get installed before I start messing wtih DNS records and certs.
