Royce, this sounds like good advice to me. I ought to migrate my DNS
that way. I started using the internal DNS w/ .local long before I
owned any real domains, and never made the switch once I did. I'll
have to use a subdomain, since I would have collisions if I just added
everything to my internal view in bind.

But it's a pain to migrate the brains of users who number well in
excess of 100 or 125. Not sure I'll do it, since I haven't encountered
a deal-breaker yet w/ .local
