[plug] bind, dns and oddities

[William Kenworthy]

Ive just rehashed my home dns running on bind.

One item I am not sure about is how to handle "wap" and
"wap.localdomain". Should I be using a CNAME to get wap to resolve
correctly? - I was under the impression that bind would handle both by
default?
