Do you mean that when it sends out queries, it should always send them as recursive queries? named sends recursive queries when it's following a forwarders setting, it sends non-recursive queries when it's following delegations. I don't think there's any way to change either of these. NS records are supposed to point to authoritative servers, so there's no reason to send these as recursive (many, if not most, authoritative servers have recursion disabled, so sending them recursive queries is pointless). -- Barry Margolin, bar...@alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group *** _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
