own hard disk, so it doesn't consume any bandwidth, and site will come up some

seconds faster on your screen which makes surfing a lot more FUN. You can say now what the hell are two seconds? Yes but how often do you go to a search engine ? How often do you go to you favorite site and further, how often doe you check your e-mail ? (once every 10 minutes is a Netscape default)

2.1 named.conf

options {
        directory "/var/named";
        /* Some shit */
};
....

options {
        directory "/var/named";
        forwarders {
                123.123.123.123;
