Looks like I'm up to date and that the last update to IPCop was installed twice...

In some other replies you sent to me, I understand that you thought I already had DNS Caching running on
the IPCop box.  It isn't set up that way, however, looking at System Status in the IPCop web interface, it shows
"DNS proxy server" RUNNING  

So, maybe I just need to change the configuration settings in the IPCop box and in the ADSL Modem and if it works as
planned, I will have my Catching DNS Server up and running. I will try that, when the VIP users are not online and I can use the other IPCop box to play with. I do not want to "LBD" (Learn By Destroying) on the IPCop box that is working for us now. If I screw up the other one (probably that won't happen), I can work with it when I have the time and maybe put SME Server or the CentOS 4.4 Server CD on it.

The other thing is, someone who replied suggested that I get an account on opendns.com and use opendns.com and I may look into that, and use opendns.com for DNS,  until I can work with the other IPCop box and try the caching DNS Server.  I need to find his reply and reply to him.

Late yesterday afternoon, I had a long phone conversation with someone in Support at our ISP. I have been in touch with a Supervisor there for the past 10 days since this thing with opendns.com began and she had him call me.  I got into the web interface for the ADSL modem and changed the configuration, so he could log into it, remotely. He found a problem, which their men working in our subdivision found, a few weeks ago, where our signal is has a problem, they think 2 cables are touching. The cables for our 2 phone lines (long cables, about 100 (?) meters long, running along the street) are underground and they mentioned running them above ground. However, that has nothing to do with our slow DNS, no DNS, or getting to opendns.com problem    I saw where the Primary and Secondary DNS Servers are in the configuration for the ADSL modem and if I get an account on opendns.com maybe I will use their DNS Servers, temporarily..   :-
