I'm not sure what you're asking.

If you want to add additional nameservers to a Linux machine for its access, enter them in /etc/resolv.conf:

nameserver 63.64.63.64
nameserver 63.64.63.65
nameserver 63.64.63.66

.64 is the first nameserver, .65 is the secondary dns server, and .66 is the tertiary.


Now, if you are asking what file you modify to add a forwarder for bind, then add that to /etc/named.conf:

options {
directory "/var/named";
forward only;
forwarders {
63.64.63.64;
63.64.63.65;
63.64.63.66;
};


Good luck.
