You'll need to "cd /etc/namedb" and:

1) sh make-localhost
2) Look at /etc/namedb/named.boot.  Make sure your "forwarders" line points
   to your ISP's nameserver(s).
3) Edit /etc/resolv.conf, listing 127.0.0.1 as the first nameserver.

O give me a home,
Where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word,
'Cause what can an antelope say?
