You have not found a better way.  You still have a network (or more 
specifically, DNS) configuration that's broken.

What you have found is a pragmatic way to solve your immediate problem 
and get some work done.  That is certainly useful (and I've done it 
plenty of times), but you need to understand that what you've done is 
hidden the problem, not solved it.
