First of all, unless you need separate views for each office, don't go down
that path. Why are you attempting this as opposed to standard master-slave
replication?
There's something else I'm not understanding here: why would recursive
queries from one office go to the other office's nameservers? What's
preventing you from setting up a second recursive nameserver in each office?
