Help: BIND _ Recursive query

[Mark Andrews]

Iterative mode is the default lookup mode for recursive servers.  It is where
the server follows the delegations from the root servers to talk to the
authoritative servers directly.  Recursive mode is where you use another
recursive server (in iterative mode) to talk to the authoritative servers.
Stub resolvers (in applications) use recursive mode.
