I have been testing and testing and either just don't see what I'm doing wrong, 
or have a learning block  :-)

current thinking is that a open recursion DNS server is bad, so we want to 
implement an allow-recursion clause; perhaps even make some views so our local 
users still recurse while the general public cannot ...

but I am running into a roadblock with our Google Apps cname:

   gmail.wvstateu.edu is a cname to ghs.google.com

and bind wants recursion turned on in order to translate it.

(actually we have a number of 3rd party CNAMEs; Google Apps have the most 
widespread usage)

I thought additional-from-auth would fix it up in a view, but either I do not 
understand additional-from-auth, or it does not work.

I also played around with a 2nd local server, testing with a forwarding zone as 
well as a stub zone ... no luck

my most recent testing is with bind 9.8.2 on Oracle Linux 6.3 64bit ... 
installed via yum from the Oracle Linux repositories (Oracle Linux is very very 
close if not a duplication, of the Red Hat distribution)

I am starting to read up on RPZ but don't know if that will help any ...

thoughts anyone?
