There is a  small nifty caching DNS utility called  as 'pdnsd' which can
save DNS records back onto your  hard disk upon exit/reboot.  I am using
BIND and PDNSD, both together, the combination is difficult to beat.

I do not know whether there is a back-port of 'pdnsd' for Potato v2.2

I believe  no one  is a guru  here, all  are learning and  everything is
changing fast in our world of computing machines. :-)

Still a 'shishya' looking out for that missing 'guru'....
