Running DNS locally?

[Jared Ottley]

Instead of running DNS local, I have opted to use www.opendns.com.  I  
like the management capabilities, especially with computer savvy kids  
in the house.

For my own DNS records, mostly external facing, I am using  
www.everydns.net.  It is first free, second very easy to use, but  
with enough power to allow me some of the more "advanced" record  
handling that I want.
