"limit recursive clients" in BIND means max open queries.

Window DNS ACL are available for limiting zone transfer to slaves,
but that's about all, afaik.
Certainly no ACL for allow/deny recursion/queries/blackhole/views/etc
that all exist in BIND.

No recursion means a DNS only serves zone data.
All these limitations of Win DNS are why BIND 9.3.2 is a better DNS product.
Yeah - bummer on that!
