If you're using a Fedora/RH distribution, just install the 
caching-nameserver package. Then, edit /etc/named.conf and add a forwarders 
section to your named.conf options section:

options {
...
	forwarders {
		198.60.22.2;
		198.60.22.2;
	};
};


And then, change your /etc/resolv.conf to:

	nameserver 127.0.0.1
