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

Clarifications below: Here is one context: What if I delegate a zone to a nameserver which is configured as a cache-only? thanks Anand On Jan 12, 5:06 pm, "Todd Snyder" wrote: > If you don't host any zones on the server, then it would always recurse, no? > > The server will always answer for zones it's authoritative for, as far as m= > y understanding. > > You might need to explain more about your confguration/desired outcome than= > you currently have. > > Todd. = > > > > -Original Message- > From: bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org [mailto:bind-users-boun...@lists.isc= > > .org] On Behalf Of anand.ba...@gmail.com > Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 5:02 PM > To: comp-protocols-dns-b...@isc.org > Subject: Re: Any options in named.conf to force recursion? > > I know that by default recursion is yes (recursion yes; ).

RE: Any options in named.conf to force recursion?
If you don't host any zones on the server, then it would always recurse, no? The server will always answer for zones it's authoritative for, as far as my understanding. You might need to explain more about your confguration/desired outcome than you currently have.

I know that by default recursion is yes (recursion yes; ). I would like to know if it is possible to enforce recursion for all the DNS queries going out of the host on which the named is configured.

RE: Any options in named.conf to force recursion?
Guys, I am trying to upgrade BIND 9.2.3 to 9.5.1-P1. Does anyone have a matrix on how to go about doing it? I need to do this ASAP so as to prevent/aid in DNS cache poisoning. Please point me in the right direction or give me advise as to how to proceed. > To: comp-protocols-dns-b...@isc.org> From: anand.ba...@gmail.com> Subject: > Any options in named.conf to force recursion?> Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2009 > 11:55:45 -0800> > Is there a option for use in named.conf to force recursion > ?> ___> bind-users mailing list> > bind-users@lists.isc.org> https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users _ Windows Live™: Keep your life in sync. http://windowslive.com/explore?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_t1_allup_explore_012009___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
