Feature request: DNS Lookup for IP Addreses

At the moment it is only possible to specify which machines are allowed to connect to the server by entering their IP addresses.

Being able to also enter domain addresses for remote machines is of importance since the remote machines are often on dynamic IP addresses (and, therefore, on dynamic DNS names).

thanks in advance,

Henrik

Hi Henrik, thanks for your suggestion. We'll see if we can add this for the next release. Thanks.

Agreed, this is definitely a needed feature.

Any news on this feature?
We have a large amount of installations and would love to run SBM but without this feature it is not possible.

thanks

Henrik

I've just uploaded a new beta (server & console) that includes this.

Excellent! Thanks!

There was a mistake in the installation for this beta version.

On 64-bit versions of Windows it incorrectly installed to the 64-bit program files folder. We've uploaded new beta versions to fix this.

After installing the new beta versions (V1.4.1 and V2.1.1) you can delete the previous version manually from the following folders:

C:\Program Files\2BrightSparks\SBMService\
C:\Program Files\2BrightSparks\SBMConsole\

If you are using 32-bit Windows then there is no need to do this.
