I love Debian,
Well I don't know what you call slow, but are you sure its the DNS that
is the lag? Dig the hostnames that you are trying and see what the
response is from the server and from other machines on your network.
Try pinging them then put in the ip of the url's you are running with
wget and elinks
dig google.com
near the bottom of the output should be a response. Is it slower on the
server? Are you running bind9 on this server and if so did you set your
ISP's DNS server as "fowarders {};" in the named.conf.options? Also if
you are running bind9 you should have your server's ip in the resolv.conf
When you say server do you mean that all nodes on your network must
connect through it then are passed to your router?
