There is a way: Its called a referral. The server answers with a
response that contains only additional data with the addresses of the
authority servers.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to tell dnscache specifically to give
out a referral answer on a per domain basis. [at least, not without
altering code]. dnscache is meant to be a recursor, and a referral is
what happens when recursion is disabled.
I have to wonder why you would want to have your recursor refuse
recursion on a per-domain basis...[url redirection maybe??] and if there
isn't a better way to do that without mucking in with the recursor.
Good luck,
