 > Of course, BIND 9 *can* do recursion, and it's the allow-query-cache and
 allow-recursion ACLs that prevent it from doing so, so the REFUSED *is*
 happening because of an ACL, not data presence.  But we're aiming for
 compatibility with BIND 9 here, and auth-only name servers send REFUSED
 when you ask for a nonexistent zone.

 interesting, I did not know that. I know at least one competitor that
 returns SERVFAIL ;)

 that gets SERVFAIL will keep trying other name servers in the NS RRset,
 whereas with REFUSED it could give up immediately.)

 If that is so, it sounds like a feature, not a bug. After all, there is a
 reasonable chance that the other servers in the NS set are not lame...
