I have never been a fan of BIND for anyone's needs, but that's for another
forum.  You're right:  It's certainly inappropriate for a non-masochist's
home LAN.

Given your interests and intentions as seen in this thread, I think you'll
find it very worthwhile to take the time to learn and configure dnsmasq.

And I do suggest you plan to spend at least a little time for it, initially,
because while powerful and relatively simple, the configuration admittedly
takes a little effort to fully grok.  But once set up, it's trivial to
adjust as your LAN changes, and stays out of the way while doing its work.
It's efficient, flexible, and gets the job done well.

I'd be happy to share and discuss details, samples, and tips if desired.

Disclaimer:  I have nothing to do with the dnsmasq project.  I'm just an
appreciative user who is delighted with it, particularly so having wrangled
numerous poorer solutions over the years.
