When you add a node to your private MyPLC, you'll need to make sure that its
DNS 1 entry points at the IP address of your MyPLC box. If you've set that
up correctly, then the generated config file for the node should have such a
DNS record in it with the appropriate ip address.  This is what the node
uses to set up its /etc/resolv.conf etc.
