You could, but it might be faster - and save resources on the PDC - to run a
caching name server on the FC box instead. The FC box is going to look up all
kinds of things that no-one in the domain will be remotely interested in.
Does the PDC query the root name servers directly (for domains it doesn't host)
or does it use the ISP's name servers?
