The point is that I don't need this functionality. My university's DNS
server provides me with all domain names I need, those inside the VPN
and those outside in the internet. I don't see no reason why *I* would
need a caching nameserver with split DNS just to use my university's DNS
only for university-related hosts and my ISP's DNS for everythin else. I
don't say that there is nobody who might want this with a setup that
differs from mine, but I for myself don't need split DNS and don't see a
specific reason why I would have to install and run bind.
I'm not denying any features to people like Greg and Derek who need them
and would accept it if I want to use NM, but it's just as I said: I'm
not eager to have it running.

Thomas
