Goodo. :)

Is it the standard named supplied with 2.2.2R? You shouldn't need to
configure anything, apart from enabling it in /etc/rc.conf. As-is that
should provide basic DNS caching services. That's unless you want to do
something funky like host your primary DNS, which is a lot more fun.

Are you getting a single IP or a set of them? Is it flat rate or volume charged?

Cheers.
