Puzzling Question....

I have not had a chance to implement this fix to the caching DNS server,
however Now our connection speed is no longer slow.  I can get email,
telnet, etc at regular speed?  I have not updated any changes on my side so
I am wondering?

Do you have anything that I can look at to see what is changing?  DNS route
and Netstat -a runs fine, nslookup on my 10.0.0.1 is still not getting
resolved as my ISP (of course) does not know about it but the network
resolves quickly.

Stumped?
