Some websites with ads are real DNS server killer. They request resolution of 90 names for each page. Some like Yahoo ask once and that's it. Mentioned this, does openSUSE use DNS resolver cache?
Er... no, you have to configure one. The service "nscd", which runs by default, is misleading. The acronym stands for "name service cache daemon", but it caches passwd, group, hosts, and services; not "dns".
But, simply by installing "bind" you have one, because the default configuration is that of a cache server.
It sounds like, use baseball bat to kill a fly. I never used bind, but it seems there is first time for everything. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
