Yup. Best way to do this is to set up separate
authoritative-only and recursive/caching-only servers. The
authoritative-only servers are the only ones referenced externally in
your registrations, and the recursive/caching-only servers are not
authoritative for anything, and refuse queries from any external
sources.

You could do this with the BIND 9 mechanism of "views", but this
makes the nameserver configuration more complex. It's a lot easier
to simply set up completely separate nameserver instances, and keep
the jobs split onto totaly independent machines.

Using 9.1.2-REL or the latest release candidate for 9.1.3 would
be recommended.
