So in my DNS under
Forward lookup Zone I create a new zone called localhost

example:
Forward Lookup Zones
    mydomain.com
    localhost

then I create blank hostname A record with 127.0.0.1. ( it gives me a
warning that it is an illegal hostname)

( I don't fully understand how localhost is a zone as opposed to an A record
in mydomain.com)

Thanks,

Kevin
