+Q: I want to forward all DNS queries from my caching nameserver to another server.

+Q: Will named be affected by the 2007 changes to daylight savings rules in the US.
+
+A: No, so long as the machines internal clock (as reported by "date -u") remains
+   at UTC. The only visible change if you fail to upgrade your OS, if you are in a
+   affected area, will be that log messages will be a hour out during the period
+   where the old rules do not match the new rules.
+
+   For most OS's this change just means that you need to update the conversion
+   rules from UTC to local time. Normally this involves updating a file in /etc
+   (which sets the default timezone for the machine) and possibly a directory
+   which has all the conversion rules for the world (e.g. /usr/share/zoneinfo).
+   When updating the OS do not forget to update any chroot areas as well. See your
+   OS's documetation for more details.
+
+   The local timezone conversion rules can also be done on a individual basis by
+   setting the TZ envirionment variable appropriately. See your OS's documentation
+   for more details.
