Hi,
For some reason .local popped into my head this morning. From what I
read it appears I may be able to create an Intranet that has a private
domain name such as MyBusiness.local, on a private IP, and I am thinking
I can run BIND and make a zone file for this Intranet. In this case, if
I am in he local net I can bring it up with MyBusiness.local?? If so
then I should be able to add subdomains to the local BIND/zone... So
will this private network work like the public Internet?
This makes me believe I can create a mail server on this private net for
the users of this private net. Not that I want to, however it is
interesting.
I read that MAC is doing something with the .local domain so it was
recommended to use:
.test
.example
.invalid
.localhost
Would it be possible to create a private network using one of these
private TLDs and can I use BIND to control this?
How will my browser know to go to my private domain if I use one of
these private domains - I seem to recall needing to put this in the
hosts file on Linux and Windows so it would resolve. Would BIND
override this?
Thanks!!
Keith
