Do you actually *need* full-on DNS service? If you don't need to use a
full-on DNS server, try something that's just a DNS proxy for upstream.
The one that Smoothwall uses serves names out of its /etc/hosts file
and passes everything else upstream to a real DNS server, and that's a
million, million times easier to set up...

What mass? When I log in I don't get much. Look in /etc/motd and
~/.bash*.
