Bah. What's a little poison between VMs?  :)

It's working well for me thus far, but I'm not yet doing much with it.

I might soon need to spin up lots of VMen, so I'll want to automate a few
things at that point. Hostname changes ( which fix the networking issues
since I'm using DHCP ) will be amongst the first things to be automated.

Finally found a document on what parameters are allowed for dnsmasq setup.
