Windows XP has a "DNS client" service that "Resolves and caches Domain
Name System (DNS) names for this computer. If this service is stopped,
this computer will not be able to resolve DNS names and locate Active
Directory domain controllers. If this service is disabled, any
services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start."
Does this speed up DNS access for a home user with a single PC on a
cable-network through a NAT router, or does the NAT router cache DNS
entries as well?
From the "ipconfig /displaydns" I can see the DNS client service
caches DNS entries, but the "time to live" is often low for an entry,
and then it needs to be fetched again, right? So does it help?
