A few years back, I read that CFGTCP, opt 12, the DNS address should
be set to 127.0.0.1.

That would only be true if your i was your DNS server, and was capable
of forwarding requests to an upstream DNS provider for resolution for
non-authoritative requests.

A few years back, I read that CFGTCP, opt 12, the DNS address should be
set to 127.0.0.1. I did that and suffered no ill affects. The i is
behind a PIX.

I don't remember where I read it, nor the 'why' of implementing it this
way.
