Provisioning problem

[scott.lovenberg at gmail.com]

FWIW, the TLÐs for ”example” (com, net,etc.) are reserved for testing.  Your isp will drop packets destined for those domains if you misconfigure, so that's a safe namespace as well.  IIRC the "test" domain is also set aside.

Sorry for top post, I can't get bottom posting to work on my blackberry...

No, but as Michael said mDNS hogs the .local namespace. I personally avoid 
confusion by using .domain instead of .local for my local test domains.

Does that help?
