as this is the first time I'm using Fedora, I noticed the following ...

(a) when open a SSH connection, it tells e.g.
Last login: Mon Jun  5 20:14:37 2017 from 192.168.1.1
all other Linux VMs and/or the Router box show there
Last login: Sat Jun  3 21:41:45 2017 from winpc.local

(b) when configuring Firefox using a proxy, this works only
when entering a IP address; when entering a DNS name
a 'Proxy server not found' error is the result ...

(c) when configuring a line printer I had to enter e.g. this
lpd://192.168.1.11/CP1515N
when entering a DNS name e.g. printer.local
then this result in a 'printer.local' could not be found;

a nslookup shows the correct IP addresses
this means the DNS server is working properly ...

nslookup resolved the .local addresses? That's surprising and might be a problem.

For at least a and c, make sure you have nss-mdns installed.
