yeah, that's the odd thing...  Since it works for the other hosts on the
network, it seems that named is working right.  But something odd is happening
with my /etc/resolv.conf file...

Here's my example (since they are invalid-on-the-net names, I'll just put
them here...)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
~>ping legolas.pewamo.local

/etc/resolv.conf:

search auroravideosys.com

/etc/host.conf:

order hosts,bind
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

And the OSX system can ping other hosts on the internal net with either their
fqdn or their hostname...   ??
