    The local machine (the one I'm on) points only to the DNS machine
in /etc/resolv.conf.  The DNS machine points to itself, and the DNS
there is made aware of the root server changes, etc so it can find
everything by itself.

    I wonder; I'm not really clear on this 'forwarding' concept. Would
this be the place for forwarding on my local machine, to this DNS
machine?
