Sniff That New OS Smell

Hello everyone I took the non-buntu plunge last night, I tried to install Mandriva.... and I must lead a cursed life, the very first thing I tried to install led me straight into RPM hell, it was kupfer, a great cross desktop solution to launch apps, tools and even automate some task, with the clear taste of fail in my mouth I decided to take a bigger jump.

BIND - DNS

BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Daemon)
the tried and true DNS (Domain Name Server).

Recently, I visited a number of very SLOW loading websites
and after some investigation, determined that the advertisments
were causing the delay, so today I decided to "resolve" (Ha! Ha!)
the slow loading advertisements problem.

After reading a few tutorials, I decided to install a local
caching DNS internally on my network, that way I could BLOCK those
pesky ads.

First I installed BIND
