HELP! Need to increase caching time

[Treptow, Craig]

I don't think so.  The owners of the data specify how long the data is
good by use of the TTL's on the records that you have cached.

Perhaps if you explain more about your situation and your ultimate
goals, somebody can help you get things setup in a way that satisfies
your needs.

For instance, why are you disconnecting your cacheing server from the
network?

Subject: HELP! Need to increase caching time

I'm new to bind. I'm running a caching server on FreeBSD 5.3.

After I disconnect the network, I observe that names are cached for just
a few minutes. Later those names are not resolvable, since their data is
not available in the cache.

Is there a way to increase the period for which domain names are cached
?

I'm quite lost.

Mike
