Thats a piece of cake Reco. On a new install, set both the hostname and 
the domainname, then add them, with the ipv4 net address into the hosts 
file. Then make resolv.conf back into a real file, with 2 lines, one to 
set the nameservers address, and one to set the search to look in hosts 
first, if that fails send the dns request to the gateway, my router, 
where if dnsmasq doesn't have it cached, the dns request gets sent on to 
my ISP's nameservers. And it all just works, typically in 30 
milliseconds. The only dhcp in the system is in the router, getting its 
outside address from my ISP.s server. The exception is in the router and 
only works when the radio is on because my boys all have smartphones and 
when they visit, I enable the radio but get their phones mac address and 
only talk to it. But if I leave the radio on, I've a neighbor whose 
phone will use it in a heartbeat regardless, and used 80GB of my net 
bandwidth according to my phone bill 2 years ago. I don't see that as 
its not bridged into this system. And although there are radios in 
almost everything these days, I keep those on my side of the router 
disabled. Just plain basic security.
