Now I am confused?
Noticing that you've, since, resolved your problem, I'll respond to this
part, here. The syntax is command name, name of domain to query,
@address of DNS server to query, as well as other options can be
supplied. You've not asked that domain server a domain name to look up.
dig example.com
Asks your default name server to resolve example.com
dig example.com @127.0.0.1
Asks the name server at 127.0.0.1 to resolve example.com
Ok, got it. That was not obvious to me from "man dig." Perhaps I was
hurrying to fast?
Thanks for the help.
