I have just set up a router and would like DNS caching on it. I have tried to
set it up an it kind of works, just computer using it as their nameserver
take ages on DNS queries, up to 4-5 seconds.
To set up the DNS caching I added the ip of another DNS server
to /etc/resolv.conf and added namd_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf.
I also tweaked the following lines in /var/named/etc/namedb/named.conf:
listen-on { "any"; };
forwarders {
192.168.0.1;
};
query-source address * port 53;
Any ideas on how to make it run better? The DNS server at 192.168.0.1 answers
DNS queries in a few milliseconds.
