I use a similar method on my laptop for a while; but I know it is
not a 'nice solution'.<br>
But when you have some ISPs who don't maintain their DNS resolvers,
you did not have much choice : use public DNS resolver or slave root
DNS.<br>
For example, in Bénin, we have copy of a root server on the Internet
exchange point (benin-ix.org.bj), but I believe there is only one
ISP that uses it!<br>

<pre wrap="">FYI
Some DNS recursive resolvers have longer-than-desired round-trip
times to the closest DNS root server. Some DNS recursive resolver
operators want to prevent snooping of requests sent to DNS root
servers by third parties. Such resolvers can greatly decrease the
round-trip time and prevent observation of requests by running a copy
of the full root zone on a loopback address (such as 127.0.0.1).
This document shows how to start and maintain such a copy of the root
zone that does not pose a threat to other users of the DNS, at the
cost of adding some operational fragility for the operator.
