Description

When LAN is a bridged interface with Wireless and Wired sub-interfaces, wifi clients don't resolve the pfsense box hostname (actually, it seems wired clients don't resolve it either)

I have a wired OPT interface and a wireless interface bridged and assigned as my LAN port.
I'm running an ALIX with the 2.0 BETA1 nano build from Feb 6. This worked about a month ago and before, but stopped working sometime in december.

Have you assigned an ip address to the bridge?
Can you show your sysctl part of config.xml or the whole config here?

I did this setup and it worked fine for me with LAN assigned as the bridge interface. hosts file is updated correctly, and dnsmasq correctly resolves the firewall's hostname for clients. Closing until/unless we can get a config.xml that shows the problem.
