On my network I have two computers, camille.espersunited.com
(70.234.122.250) and catherine.espersunited.com (70.234.122.251).  Each
of these two computers runs its own local DNS server.  They do this to
speed up internet access.; at least they used to.  Now I find that
internet access is slow and that they are trying to use each other's DNS
server, which is not what I want.

On camille:

camille ~ # cat /etc/resolv.conf
search espersunited.com 
nameserver 70.24.122.250
nameserver 70.234.122.251
nameserver 70.234.122.248
nameserver 192.168.1.254
domain espersunited.com

camille ~ # dig camille.espersunited.com

Why is it doing this?  I can post /etc/named/db.espersunited.com if you
think it would help...
