It's there: see the "localise-queries" flag. The only thing you have 
make sure is that you use the correct address for the DNS server.

Host 10.2.0.152 will get 10.2.0.8 for server1.home.lan _as_long_as it 
uses 10.2.0.1 as the address of its nameserver. If it uses one of the 
other addresses of the server, it will get a different answer.
