Speed internet browsing via a local domain name server
Authored by: dirtymouse on Jan 11, '06 05:31:09AM

Works beautifully for me:

some possible trip ups that may have been causing problems for others:

[1]


"

Add the following into the options section...

forwarders {
x.x.x.x;
x.x.x.x;
};

"

>> i was thinking this was wrong and put it in separately, but that caused an error and i re-read those instructions, the end result should actually look like this (sans any comments):

options {
directory "/var/named";

forwarders {
x.x.x.x;
x.x.x.x;

};

// query-source address * port 53;
};



[2]

DNSSERVER=-YES-.

should be DNSSERVER=-YES-
