Fix allowing different tld. #14

Closed mloberg closed 9 years ago

mloberg commented 9 years ago

Support for using a different tld was added in a recent version, but when you changed it, it wouldn't use the configuration shipped with the module. Updated to always use dev.dnsmasq for the plist config.

It's worth noting that the .local tld didn't work for me. I remember hearing somewhere that Apple uses it for looking stuff locally and if it does work, it's slow.

@dgoodlad this looks good to me, what do you think?

Thanks for the ping - :+1: this looks good!

Correct; .local by default gets resolved by the bonjour/mdns resolver, which means you'll have to wait for that process to fail and possibly fall back to regular DNS. It's going to be problematic, and probably not worth your time.
