Local DNS Propagation Question

Greetings,

While this question may sound silly I am unable to contact my usual
resource to ask so I have come here in hopes of an answer.

I have a small home network sitting behind a Linksys Router. I have
successfully set up Apache and Local DNS for my network on an Ubuntu
machine. I have confirmed it to work correctly by setting it's address
for the primary DNS on another machine on the network. It resolves the
host name I created correctly and pulls the desired web pages from
Apache.

All that said, the domain name that I am using locally is one that
already belongs to an active site on the internet. My local machines
do not resolve to that site though they resolve to my local one (which
is ok with me). My question however is will my DNS entries stay local?
eg I do not want it to propagate my address (my internet address that
is) across the internet as being the destination for that site.

Don't want to get in trouble for stealing someones domain name when
that is not my intent...

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

PS I am using "dnsmsq" on the Linux box.

Thanks!
