Hi.
I have RH7, and I tried to configure DNS caching.
Excuse me, but I drownd in documentation and configuration files.
I've installed caching-nameserver rpm and I am running `named'.
I'm guessing that resolv.conf should contain a line as
nameserver 127.0.0.1
so that bind (?) would know to ask localhost for names, and that some
vague named configuration file should contain the remote dns I wish to
access.
Is my guess correct? If not - why what I did does not work (repeated requests
still take half-seconds)? Why dns caching is not the common configuration for
linux workstations? Or is it?
Dan.
