dig responds instantly but with the query REFUSED when asking for a
simple host name, for example "pfa". When asking for the qualified
host name, "pfa.local", the output contains the suspicious lines,
"WARNING: .local is reserved for Multicast DNS You are currently
testing what happens when an mDNS query is leaked to DNS".

So, is it possible that this issue is a result of using ".local"
as a pseudo-TLD for the local network?
