Uninstalled POW server but now cannot reach external .dev sites

Question

I tried the Anvil server accessory for Mac OSX, which installed Pow. I decided after trying it I didn't have any real use for it, so ran the uninstall.

Except now I can no longer reach any of my company's .dev sites! At the DNS level, I would guess POW is still hijacking the .dev calls, and of course failing.

I need all traces of this software off my system, so I can reach all our .dev sites and develop as usual. As it stands, I am now dead in the water.

I am on 10.8.2. I tried rebooting as well.

Answer 1

There's a bug in the uninstaller as of this writing. It left a router file at /etc/resolvers/dev. I renamed this file to dev1 and rebooted, problem gone.
