Or fix your /etc/host.conf to lookup in files first and then use DNS,
then put your local network in /etc/hosts. Much simpler for a small
network.
E.g. /etc/host.conf
# First try the /etc/hosts file
hosts
# Now try the nameserver next.
bind
And /etc/hosts
192.168.0.1 myhost
Then leave resolv.conf alone. It will be used for anything not in your
local hosts file.
