Standards don't tend to be abolished unless there's a good reason. There wasn't a standard before home.arpa. Since 2013 it's been "use your own globally unique registered domain, or else use home.arpa". But in this case even if you don't do that, or don't want to do that, *it doesn't really matter*! Are you sure you aren't dramatically "feeling confused" about this simple thing as an excuse to have a big complain? Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
