An "rndc status" shows "recursive > clients: 0/0/1000", which suggests to me that I can have up to 1000 recursiv > e clients simultaneously, and using the same configuration file on a test mac > hine and turning up the debugging level gives "16-Apr-2010 15:34:37.026 clien > t x.x.x.x#35622: recursion available"
allow-recursion defaults to "{ localnets; localhost; };". If the client was not on a directly connected network it will NOT get recursion by default. When a piece of software is complaining about something it is usually a pretty good bet that it is right and you are wrong.
