Adam,

Not sure you saw my original post - its not quoted below.

I'm not running views but its looking like I need to do so.  I had hoped
I'd be able to control with the internaldns ACL and adding
allow-recursion for that ACL.  

I see there is an additional-from-cache than can be disabled in an
external view.

Hi,

did you try set "recursion no;" in your external view? I didn't test
it but it might help.
