The network configuration on the home desktop/server is unusual. It had previously been configured to share DNS records with another zone. Moreover, the wireless network is statically configured, because it only ever needs to connect to the home Wireless AP, and I want it to connect on boot, so that other hosts can connect in. Network Manager does not want to connect until someone logs in.
The `/etc/resolv.conf` was not being updated with the Wireless AP as the dns server to handle forwarding. The normal instructions assume you are not running a local DNS server (which is typical). To fix DNS, I had to add a `forwarders` entry in `/etc/bind/named.conf.options`. Not rocket science, but I will probably forget by the next time it needs to be configured.
