If I disable DNS forwarder and TinyDNS, I cannot access any website, that's
a normal behaviour right?
If I enable DNS fowarder only I can surf the web without any issue (I tested
this setup for two days) that's normal too.
But, If I only enable DNS service(TinyDNS) and disable DNS fowarder, I can
surf the web for 6 hours or so then it goes down the hability to surf the
web, If I just restart the DNS service everything comes back ok.

If TinyDNS doesn't do caching lookup, my question is why I can surf the web
for some hours, if DNS fowarder is disabled?
And If I enable both services I get the same surfing the web working
behaviour for 6 or 7 hours, so do I have to tune something in the pfsense
box?
or should I have separate boxes serving DNS service and DNS caching besides
the pfsense box?


P.S. Is it normal that TinyDNS doesn't show the MX records on the add/edit
tab which I configured during the setup wizard?
