Put the name of the machine (sans domain) in your /etc/hosts file, and check whatever it is that you need to make sure your system checks /etc/hosts FIRST, and THEN DNS. This way your system will look the same as it did BEFORE DNS, while having DNS for other hosts, etc. B. -- "A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila ."
