thanks for the info.  I may put in a recursive name server but I think 
I'll hold true to my commitment to never use anything by djb.

not that I have any spare time or anything like that but it probably 
would be amusing/an interesting project to create a recursive only name 
server to sit in front of dnsmasq.  After I finish recovering from the 
"my laptop that died two days after I backed up only some of the data" 
event, I may take a look at components that might be available.

thanks again
