[ale] public name server

[MSmith at webtonetech.com (Michael Smith)]

	What about the possibility of turning on the caching DNS
server(bind) on your linux box and forwarding any unknown names to the
telocity dns servers.  Wouldn't this build up a list to some point where you
wouldn't rely on the telocity DNS servers for name resolution?  Any ideas?

I know it doesn't help you now but maybe this would help down the road.....

I use telocity as my connection to the net and also my nameserver.  Several
times now -- today being the most recent -- names that should be valid are
not in their DNS database.  Would anyone care to speculate on whether this
is their error or whether this is a manifestation of internet growing
pains?  And is there some kind of "publicly available" nameserver that I
could use instead of telocity to get more comprehensive and up-to-date DNS
results?

TIA.
