Hi,
In my point of view you do not understand what's the difference between
caching proxy and caching DNS.
But main difference is that caching proxy is used to cache web requests
and responses (http, https, ftp), while DNS cache is used to chache DNS
queries and responses (when you ping www.dir.bg and you recieve
194.145.63.12 this is request "what's the address of www.dir.bg and
response is "address is 194.145.63.12").
What are you trying to achieve?

My question is what's the difference between Squid DNS caching and BIND
and other programs that cache DNS requests?
