Just a helpful FYI although I am no longer using a network:

I think I remember discovering this quirk in my Dapper system when I was
manually setting domains. I remember DHCP wasn't working best for me.

Is it possible that the gap in logic is not in DHCP but in a library it
uses? That gets used even when it is off?

Thanks,
