This is what I do on my gateway machine. As part of the PPP ip-up script,
I generate a /etc/named.conf.$LOC with the correct name servers, for example
(I'm currently connected via demon.net, so LOC=demon) the forwarding part is :
options {
forward first;
forwarders {
158.152.1.58;
158.152.1.43;
};
};
and then do a :
cmp -s /etc/named.conf.$LOC /etc/named.conf || \
(cp -p /etc/named.conf.$LOC /etc/named.conf && \
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/named.pid`)
I also flush NAT rules (`/usr/sbin/ipnat -F`), run `ntpdate` and (if on demon)
run `/usr/sbin/sendmail -q`.
