Local dns cache with dnsmasq
local cache for faster internet browsing.
#apt-get install dnsmasq
in /etc/dnsmasq.conf
listen-address=127.0.0.1
in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
prepend domain-name-server 127.0.0.1;
in /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 127.0.0.1
The last thing you need to do
#/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart
#/etc/init.d/networking restart
Another interesting package that does the same thing is pdnsd. The best thing about pdnsd is, it saves the dns cache in disk which is still available even after you reboot.
