+ I have a forwardonly dnscache (from dbndns) set up on my system, with a
  forwarding address set up to our campus resolver.
  
  My system has a static IP configuration and in my
  /etc/network/interfaces, I specify "dns-nameservers 192.17.80.184"
  (local IP address) to have the DNS queries go through the DNS cache.
  When ifup runs, however, the dnscache script updates
  /etc/dnscache/root/servers/@ to point to 192.17.80.184, i.e., the
  address of the DNS cache itself. After this, any queries to the dnscache
  get stuck in an infinite loop as it forwards them to itself.
  
  I could change /etc/network/interfaces to specify the campus resolver in
  there, but this would cause the update.d/libc script to point
  /etc/resolv.conf to the campus resolver, and not my local dnscache,
  which defeats the point of the dnscache.
