I want my named to cache requests to other domains, to save
lookup-time.

It answers nicely on questions regarding nodes in my own domain, but
it won't forward questions regarding nodes in the world.

I have tried both with and without "forwarder 194.182.101.2", in
named.boot, but neither works, not even when the ppp is up.

nslookup
server 194.182.101.2

works, and also triggers ppp.
