Nope, tinydns is a dns server, and thus is only able to server the dns records 
it knows about (the ones you told it).
dnscache is what asks the dns server for records, the entries in 
/etc/dnscache/root/servers/ tell it where to go for those records.
If you don't want, or need, a dns server all of your own then you will have 
nothing to tell dnscache about, and completely forget about tinydns. Just 
leave the @ with the root servers in and it'll go off to the internet for any 
query.
