Caching DNS Server?

[Andrew Smith]

Ok I think I've got bind working correctly, in resolve.conf I've only put 
127.0.0.1 as the nameserver and I'm able to ping stuff on the internet.  Is 
there anyway I can test to see if it's actually caching my requests?  Where 
is the cache stored?

FYI,

The only things I did to /etc/named/named.conf was comment-out the listen-on 
line and put in my ISP DNS servers in the forwarders.  I also deleted all 
the zone information.
