 If it doesn't resolve, then you can't use it.

 A 'ping <hostname>.fritz.box' is getting resolved, returning the correct
 IP address:

 {{{
 64 bytes from 192.168.178.4: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.123 ms
 }}}

 A 'ping <hostname>.local' is getting resolved, returning the correct IP
 address:

 {{{
 64 bytes from 192.168.178.4: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.115 ms
 }}}

 {{{
 127.0.0.1       localhost
 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
 ::1             localhost
 }}}
 >

 {{{
 search fritz.box
 nameserver 192.168.178.60
 }}}

 Port is compiling software on Tiger, so it will stay up for a days. Since
 Tiger is booted from an external disk via FireWire it seems it cannot
 hibernate, so I am switching it off or booting into Leopard on the built-
 in disk.
