Right, our IT security group has only exempted our two DNS vlans from the 
Procera, which was otherwise interfering with DNSSEC since it looks like P2P.

Which was a problem because I had forgotten that we have localhost-only 
recursive caching servers on our SMTP and MX servers.  So, now they're 
localhost-only forward-only caching servers....

Hmmm, occurs to me that's the solution I should try giving to admin at one of 
our other campuses where he doesn't want to have his users pointed at our 
recursive caching DNS servers, but is having trouble in that we're running a 
stealth (split) DNS type configuration on not being able to resolve internal 
names using our public authoritative-only nameservers.  (hampered by the fact 
that I have a stealth master, and no internal authoritative-only nameservers, 
yet. -- pretty much the only server that causes me stress when its time to 
update bind ;)

Wonder about all the other people that run their own DNS (and such) on 
campus....One time the physics department was all angry that we (central IT) 
had changed the size of a DNS packet to be larger than 512-bytes on them.  
Forget if I ever mentioned that DNS isn't just udp....
