Hello!
Well, I don't know much about nameservers, so maybe someone can help me with an
idea how to improve my configuration.
I use bind-8 on a Mandrake 7.2 server as DNS for our local network. Queries for
names (our IPs) outside the local net are forwarded to our providers DNS.
Trouble is, that my DNS seems no to cache addresses.
If do for example nslookup for www.gmx.net and repeat this after 30 seconds my
DNS forwards the queries both times to our ISP instead of resolving it itself.
Surprisingly, if I do two nslookups direct behind each other there is only one
query forward, the other answer comes as 'Non-authoritative answer' from my own
DNS.
I guess for most people in this list it may be a boring question, but I would
appreciate any help to improve my configuration to minimize the number of query-
forwards. I hope that this will speed up the hole system a little bit then :-)
Further down you'll find the named.conf-file of my DNS.
Thanks for the help,
Michael
