Well, I do have this problem too. But: It doesn't matter. Your nameserver
is only able to resolve names in your local domain. It doesn't know
about other nameservers able to resolve adresses in other domains.
As long you don't have a slip or any other connection to the net, you don't need
access to other nameservers.
