Thanks for everyone's input, I think my named server is working quite well now! This list is fantastic!
BTW, the first time I posted, my spam filter ate the e-mail and all the responses. After I posted the question the 2nd time it showed up and then I got curious as to what happened after Johnny's comment below!

I started the named server on CentOS and it seems to resolve DNS request OK, but it does not seem to retain

So
in the morning, it takes 4+ seconds to resolve again
the
first time. Is there an adjustment somewhere for this
or is
the caching named support not enabled by default?
Also, I thought it would be faster if I set named to
use my
ISP's named server as the first choice. Where do I set
this
up, in root.hints?
Anyone who knows more about "named" please feel free to comment!
Thanks! Lee
