	I am attempting to run a caching nameserver on freebsd 3.3-STABLE.
I've enabled it in rc.conf, and run the make-localhost script.
Every thing works fine until I have servers that try and do a reverse dns 
query on localhost and my nameserver reports the host is not found.  I have 
host.conf setup to check /etc/hosts first then bind.  Any thoughts on why 
the FreeBSD default nameserver configuration won't properly reverse localhost?

Doug
