I'm trying to set up a DNS server for our small network. Any failed requests
need passing on to our ISP's DNS or the authoritative servers.
I've got a cacheing nameserver set up as per the DNS-HOWTO which works fine
when the ppp link is up. This correctly gives answers from its internal
tables where possible and from cache or the 'net when not.
The problem is when the ppp link is down. It doesn't seem to generate
requests to kick diald into action. I can't see any pending in the
diald-control screen.
Can these work together and if so what am I missing? I'll send my config
files if anyone is prepared to help.
TIA
