But then if what you are saying is true, then a caching name server is
not *needed* but is a good thing to have to stop inefficiencies. Again,
I say this because I have setups that only have an authoritative name
server on them and the caching name server is the machine immediately
below it in the rack.
This should be just fine. In a case like this, you do not need a local
caching name server.
I guess the questions are: Does qmail specifically query a name server
on the current machine or does it just do a normal DNS query? If it
specifically does a request to the local machine does it do it on
localhost so that a cachine DNS can be put on localhost and the
authoritative one on the external IP?
Nope, just follows /etc/resolv.conf.
