[ feel free to ignore this, but ] you may want to note that one can not trust (in the dnssec sense) the result from a query that caused recursion. one has to do the traversal. there has been some discussion of the device having a trust association (see TSIG) with a (caching recursive) server which does the checking for one, but it has not converged. randy -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
