I hope this won't sound too simple minded. I've made a webserver with a nameserver that right now is running using a single static IP for testing. I have 5 static IP's I can use when I get this going "for real". Right now I have a DSL connection going through a bridged modem into a router. The router is set up to use a single one of the assigned IP addresses, and my ISP's DNS servers.

I want to put together a monowall appliance to use all my static IP's with one going to my home computers via the router, and the rest being used by the web server(s). My dumb question is, in the monowall setup, do I put my ISP's nameserver's or do I use my own somehow?

What started this was while the server is connected through my current Linksys router, the server can't access web sites outside itself unless I set it to use my ISP's (Verizon) DNS servers. I'm hoping monowall will help clear this up. Sorry if I'm not making much sense - it's been a long day.
