Had to think for a moment on how we got our own TLD to work The answer is that all our resolvers, including the localhost resolvers for machines in 10.x.x.x space. Don't recall if it was related to this or not...but these localhost resolvers also use "forward first;" I had at one time tried

First of all, don't use .loc as an internal TLD. There are *many* proposals in process with ICANN for establishing new TLDs, and for all you know, .loc might be one of them. If .loc gets established on the Internet, and you're using it internally, that presents abundant opportunities for confus
