I was wondering if there is a way to overide this behavior myself. I have my linux workstation acting as the gatway to the net for my other systems(i know I should not use the workstation as the firewall, but I am cheap and lazy) The other systems are using the caching server on my linux box while my linux box looks at road runner for its answers. It is agrivating. I would love to over-ride this behavior.
