Thanks all for the push in the "do it right, fool!" direction.  For the
record, you can call ipchains deprecated if you want, but iptables is
marked as "experimental" still.  I will certainly be moving to it soon,
but not while I'm moving to a new server and physically rewiring and
rebuilding my entire home office.

In a few weeks, when I'm recovered and everything's working, the links 
y'all sent me will be very useful.

I found, once I calmed down some, that the problem was I told RLZ's script
I was going to set up a forwarding-only nameserver, but I had not done
that yet.  I replaced just that section with the rules from my old server
and everything worked.  I never was able to get the caching nameserver 
working on my old server, but I'm gonna try on the new server soon.

Thanks again to all.
