What is NAMO?
NAMO is a program that allows you to set up a local DNS server on your Mac without needing to be a network professional. With its user-friendly interface, you can install and configure a nameserver on macOS in just a few minutes.
For users of MAMP PRO, NAMO automatically resolves all desired virtual hosts. But even for users of our free MAMP software, NAMO is the ideal partner for optimizing the workflow during local testing.

How can I use NAMO?
Testing websites on a local network
Test websites using fixed domain names instead of changing IP addresses. This is especially useful for simplified testing on mobile devices.
Providing internal company applications on the local network
Access internal company services like wikis, CRM systems, image databases, calendars, or bug trackers with ease.
Seamless integration with MAMP & MAMP PRO
NAMO automatically resolves all sites from MAMP PRO, making them available under the hostname assigned in MAMP PRO.
NAMO also works excellently with MAMP: In just a few steps, you can access your local MAMP websites under a fixed domain name and no longer have to worry about IP addresses.
Easily preview your websites on your local network
With NAMO, you can effortlessly test your websites on different devices within your LAN. As your local name server, NAMO eliminates the need to type in IP addresses.
Instead, you can access your projects under "real" domain names, such as "MyWebProject.com," rather than using hard-to-remember IP addresses like "192.168.178.14". This makes it ideal for quick access from mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
Thanks to NAMO's automatic IP address update feature, your projects will remain accessible under the domain name even if your computer's IP address changes. This is often the case if your computer gets its IP address dynamically (via DHCP) from the router.
Effortlessly access web applications on your LAN
Whether you want to deploy a wiki, CRM, image database, bug tracker, or any other web application in your company, there are many reasons to do it on your local network instead of on the Internet.
Not only is it more secure, but access times are also faster. Even if your Internet provider goes down, there’s no problem—your data is available locally, and NAMO ensures that your applications are accessible through simple domain names. Try now!
