You also want to be sure to have listed "file"
in /etc/resolv.conf

Mine looks like:

lookup file bind
nameserver 192.168.1.1  <-- or whatever suits your situation.

man 5 resolv.conf   for other things you might need or want.

I seem to recall dim memories of another file where that might
be useful, too, but I can't think of it.  Somebody else might.
Maybe that's not on BSD.  Hmmm.
