I have 3 RHEL4 servers, i wish to use some form of caching name service. 
as i understand it nscd is installed and thats it. Or can install the 
caching name service for BIND and then change the resolv conf to point 
to the local host first?

According to the network guys the mailscanner servers are hammering his 
DNS server and he wants me to reduce the traffic (i wouldnt have thought 
it would be a big deal with only 6-10k messages per day?).

Which method is most desirable? Or is there a better way?
