I checked name resolution again to try and find why UNAVAIL option causes a failure.

I make 3 tests. Always restart named and dhcpd after any change. Always clear FF cache before any test.
Note: my dhcpd.conf includes a global option:
	next-server files;
'files' is an alias of 'e7', the main server. needed for pxe.

FF Open a local file (http:/www/)
	does it open in FF?
FF Open an external file (anything)
	does it open in FF?
Phone WiFi off/on
	is there an error in system log: dhcpd[4010783]: files: host unknown?

First test
==========
set in  /etc/nsswitch.conf
	hosts:      files myhostname resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns

FF Open a local file (http:/www/)
	failure
FF Open an external file (anything)
	OK
Phone WiFi off/on
	failures in system log: dhcpd[4010783]: files: host unknown.

Second test
===========
set in  /etc/nsswitch.conf
	hosts:      files myhostname resolve dns

All tests OK

I tried to set named 'forwarders" to either my internet modem or 1.1.1.1. Made no difference.
