    The local machine (the one I'm on) points only to the DNS machine in
/etc/resolv.conf.  The DNS machine points to itself, and the DNS there
is made aware of the root server changes, etc so it can find everything
by itself.

    I wonder; I'm not really clear on this 'forwarding' concept. Would
this be the place for forwarding on my local machine, to this DNS
machine?

This may sound silly but check your disk usage. A simular thing happened
to me and I was out of disk space.
