Morning folks :-) Well the local DNS is building a cache anyway - whether it's configured to use the upstream server as a forwarder or not. I was doing some research late into last night to provide an accurate answer to this. It'll come in a separate post in a few minutes, julian. ===

If I understand the discssion correctly; I would recommend putting forwarders in. The forwarders (more than one) should be your ISP's DNS servers and aother organizations DNS server. The second thing I would suggest is adding a second DNS server which is a slave of the first. Two reasons for th
