Yes, because in that case your notebook tries to reach your DNS server
at your workplace, and times out.

You also should choose another domain for home use, batcave.org is
registered in the internet, so there are replies for that, also for a
root name server its a legit domain, so it forwards the query to the
approp. NS in the net, and there you get some results back you surely
will not want to get.

Or you run named as a caching-only NS, and add nameserver 127.0.0.1
first place in /etc/resolv.conf.


pris 18:57 >host batcave.org
batcave.org has address 64.12.47.237

something like batcave.home or so will be fine...
