I'm not disputing that running a caching DNS server is a good idea, but
you may be quite surprised at the low cache hit rate for IP-based DNSBLs.
IMO, the primary goal of a caching-only nameserver is in fact, not the
caching, but rather the unique source IP so as to avoid running into DNS
limits placed on RBL queries from some BL providers that you can run
afoul of when sharing a DNS server.
Caching is really just icing on the cake coupled with the simplest way
to get a local DNS server up and running, no?
