How exactly are you testing this from your client, with ping? What are you using to query the DNS?
If you run nslookup from the client
- Does the ‘server’ command return the correct DNS server?
- Does <A-record>.lan return the expected record?
I’m assuming you’ve run ifconfig to verify your client’s NIC has been assigned the correct DNS via DHCP?
Yeah MakeMKV is great. That should be top on any ripping software list.
