That's a fair question. I'm much more interested in validating than recursive. I don't believe that enough upstream resolvers will reliably get the end system answers that can be validated, so the validating end system will have to be able to be a recursive some of the time anyway. I suppose it would be better to have the end system be a "validating stub-but-recursor-when-necessary", but that seems weird. Maybe it isn't. --Paul Hoffman _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list [email protected] https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
