What I want to do is to set up the DNS Caching Nameserver. The goal is:

Do you know that you can set up your own resolver/cache instead of a
forwarder/cache and then not have to deal with opendns?


Ok. I'll byte. Where do I start reading? Somebody has to be my resolver.
Either I pick it or it's assigned to me by my ISP. Either way,m it seemed like
a good idea to cache what I collected and then to make my machines on the
inside of my net take advantage of the cache. What am I missing? And I don't
understand the difference between what you're saying as different between a
resolver cache vs a forwarder cache.


I tend to consult the official documents of bind. This is included when
you install it and can be found at...

/usr/share/doc/bind-9.6.1/arm

file:///usr/share/doc/bind-9.6.1/arm/Bv9ARM.html would get you to the
manual.... And Chapter 3 has a sample config file for a caching nameserver.
