That's what I'd do.
# yum remove bind
# yum install pdns-recursor
# service pdns-recursor start
# dig @127.0.0.1 yahoo.com
(to be sure it's working)
# chkconfig pdns-recorsor on
That should do it. Also be sure that
nameserver 127.0.0.1
is the first (and perhaps only) line in your resolv.conf file.

Ok, well I guess its about time I did something with this server since
it has been set this way since the beginning 7yrs ago :)
I have always noticed some performance issues related to our dns and mail.
So, I guess my first step would be to remove Bind and install powerdns
or visa versa.
Where do I go to setup the pwerdns?
Once I get it back up and running I will setup another host for my
missing authoritative server.
Does this sound correct?

Rather than messing with resolv.conf file to see what happens from
each resolver, use the @ option with dig. Then you'll know
specifically what each server gives you.
If it were me, I'd 86 the authoritative DNS on QMT (do you *really*
need that there?), and install powerdns-recursor there and simply use
that. Once again, mixing authoritative and recursive (caching) roles
is asking for trouble. KISS.
