Changing DNS cache on home LAN?

[Marc.Thach at radianz.com]

Your forward domain is not likely to be called 192.168.0, more likely you
will be calling it something like ratboy.com.  Note also that none of your
boxes should point to your ISPs DNS server in their resolv.conf (or
equivalent).  They should all point to your DNS.  Your DNS should point to
itself (127.0.0.1)

 Makes sense. So when I get done I should have files for  127.0.0,
192.168.0, and 192.168.0.rev?
 Also, I still think I have a problem with how long the server is keeping
names in the cache. Last night I timed it and I could telnet into the
router for an hour almost an hour without the router connecting to the
ISP, after that it went back to dialing up and not letting me dial in
until it was connected.
