Isn't a resolver part of the OS libraries that do DNS lookups, not a network service that can be checked. > I use dns.monitor on > my primary servers to check that Im handing out data, but I also want > to be checking my recursive resolvers to make sure they are handing out > answers as well and I don't see a good way to do that?
