Hi Bruno,

Thanks for the tips and glad to hear you are interested. I had success today with this configuration for my /etc/dnsmasq.conf on the router:

address=/nolime.sandcats.io/10.13.49.88

address=/.nolime.sandcats.io/10.13.49.88

After a restart, I could then access the sandstorm server at nolime.sandcats.io (from within the network).

I think the next step is to learn more about Sandstorm's sandcats service and see if it's possible to make the server accessible from the internet as well. Is there any configuration on the LiMe side you think would be necessary for that?

I'll play with the host propagation later.

hey Marvin, I'm also very interested in running sandstorm in a libre mesh network.

I understand that lime takes care of propagating the hostnames in a network (it does take a few minutes to do that once in have a new computer connected). I guess you could have several names in the /etc/hostname file, and they would all propagate, but I never tested that.

The dnsmasq is simple, all you have to do is add a line to the dnsmasq.conf file, such as

address=/.sandstorm.local/10.7.0.10
Thus, all *.sandstorm.local requests would be redirected to 10.7.0.10.
But this needs to be  changed in all nodes, so the best is to have it changed in the chef configuration, so you'll have a firmware with this feature to be installed in all routers.

I'll try to get something similar running and let you know!

Regards
Bruno

A related issue is that I am trying to install Sandstorm on a small
computer in the network. As far as I can tell from the instruction
<https://docs.sandstorm.io/en/latest/administering/faq/#can-i-run-sandstorm-on-a-totally-offline-server-or-airgapped-network>,
this should be possible if I setup a dnsmasq
<https://davejamesmiller.wordpress.com/2013/03/14/installing-dnsmasq-wildcard-local-domains-debian/>.
Is it clear to anyone whether this needs to be done on the sandstorm
server, or on the lime router, or across the entire lime network?
