Thanks for that quick overview.  I always thought it silly that I run a Linux 
box as my firewall but forward all DNS queries straight through it.  I have 
one problem with your instructions:

I can do this, but whenever pump configures my interface from my ISP's DHCP 
servers, /etc/resolv.conf gets blasted away.  Does anyone know how to set it 
up so that "nameserver 127.0.0.1" is the first line, and other lines are just 
appended to the file?
