DNS Question

[counsel]

I am using the most recent Community Edition, and I am attempting to run Scalix on a server on our LAN.

The Wizard says the network and dependencies checks fail. I can fix the dependencies...minor oversight

However, I have never meddled with DNS...

Here is the contents of the log file:

...

Are there directions, somewhere, that show examples of what the files should look like or what should be in those files?

Thanks,

Hi!
Here is a video for the installation of Scalix:

Step3 shows you how to configure DNS and modify the hosts file.
