Acrylic DNS Proxy!

More..

Since a specific upgrade path is not provided for Acrylic the best way to upgrade is simply to uninstall the old version and install the new one. Before uninstalling the old version you may want to make a backup of your configuration files as they will be all deleted by the uninstall process. **Note: ** On Windows 10, while trying to install the new version, you might see a _The service has been marked for deletion_ error. This usually happens when _Process Explorer_ by Sysinternals, the _Task Manager_ or the _Microsoft Management Console_ are open while uninstalling the old version. In this case close all the aforementioned applications (which should trigger the removal of the service by the OS and retry installing the new version again.

It can serve the names of local machines which are not in the global DNS. The DHCP server integrates with the DNS server and allows machines with DHCP-allocated addresses to appear in the DNS with names configured either in each host or in a central configuration file. Dnsmasq supports static and dynamic DHCP leases and BOOTP/TFTP/PXE for network booting of diskless machines. ยป
