Best DNS

Is it best to let the astaro box look up root dns information. Or rely on a external 3d party DNS server? Or possibly even use a internal one. Reson I ask is the root dns servers are more trusted.

Or level 3 dns servers work great to. Or could use the root dns servers right?

You could, but you shouldn't... it's very bad net etiquette, and it's very likely to be much slower than a good resolver such as OpenDNS or GoogleDNS, as several queries have to be made for each 'lookup'.
