[ILUG] DNS/Bind/caching nameserver

[ILUG] DNS/Bind/caching nameserver

It gets cached in named on the local machine, in memory, you might provoke
it do a dump to /var/tmp or /var/named with ndc....

You can also configured the caching server to forward queries via your ISP
so it still caches them but goes via the ISP for unknowns..
