The GnatBox provides a minimialist DNS Server ... I wouldn't call it a DNS Proxy any more than anyother DNS server. While I use it for economic reasons, there are limitations and shortcomings: a. No Domain transfer support b. No way to configure TTL (ugly if you need to support a planned change to IP addresses) c. Reverse lookup configuration is not well explained, apparently incomplete, etc. d. Spurious invalid domain name messages ... for example my MX records reference a spam blocking front end service and they work fine when handed out by the DNS but at various times, I get errors reported.
I don't use the GNATbox forwarding ... my internal DNS server is configured to use my ISP's server directly so I can't speak to that function. I use the GNATbox as my public DNS server.
