I have an issue happening here. I actually do have a vague idea what it is but 
I am not real sure how is happening and how to avoid it. I was doing a research 
the other day and landed on this domain;

p3net.net

I found a little strange when I logged into this domain because rather than 
seeing their website, I am seeing our main website page. Then, I performed a 
dig on their domain and got this output:

; <<>> DiG 0.0.0 <<>> p3net.net

It seems like they have their domain configuration A Record pointed to the 
localhost. We all know that the localhost is not routable outside of the 
internet. Therefore I am sure their website cannot resolve out of the 
127.0.0.1.  
In addition to that, it is possible that this is happening only here because of 
the way our Server configuration is setup in the OS X to bring the resolver to 
the localhost first before it can go out to the distributed domains/websites 
through the Apache conf.
In my name configuration I have everything going to their respective internal 
non-routable separated ip addresses and localhost resolve to localhost only. I 
do not have any domain or website pointing to the localhost directly on my name 
conf.
Every website point to their respective internal ip addresses only. Ps: (If the 
information I am giving appears to be too vague and you need any specific 
information, please, ask!)

 
Thanks!
