Hi All:

I need to set up dns to allow recursive inquiries from our mail servers,
etc. since our upstream is not providing this.  I would also like to not
have an open dns server for security reasons.

I believe I need to set recursive to no and allow-recursion 10.0.0.0/24 for
more class c.     Using webmin how do I set up the server to be nonrecursive
while at the same time allowing my local network

To make recursive inquiries.

You can configure this in Webmin's BIND module, on the Addresses and
Topology file, in the Allow recursive queries from field. Just enter your
network address, and BIND should disallow recursive queries from other
networks ..
