=head1 NAME

Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse - Perform recursive dns lookups

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse;
  my $res = Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse->new;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is a sub class of Net::DNS::Resolver. So the methods for
Net::DNS::Resolver still work for this module as well.  There are just a
couple methods added:

=head2 hints

Initialize the hint servers.  Recursive queries need a starting name
server to work off of. This method takes a list of IP addresses to use
as the starting servers.  These name servers should be authoritative for
the root (.) zone.

  $res->hints(@ips);

If no hints are passed, the default nameserver is asked for the hints. 
Normally these IPs can be obtained from the following location:

  ftp://ftp.internic.net/domain/named.root
  
=head2 recursion_callback

This method is takes a code reference, which is then invoked each time a
packet is received during the recursive lookup.  For example to emulate
dig's C<+trace> function:

 $res->recursion_callback(sub {
     my $packet = shift;
		
     $_->print for $packet->additional;
		
     printf(";; Received %d bytes from %s\n\n", 
         $packet->answersize, 
         $packet->answerfrom
     );
 });

=head2 query_dorecursion

This method is much like the normal query() method except it disables
the recurse flag in the packet and explicitly performs the recursion.

  $packet = $res->query_dorecursion( "www.netscape.com.", "A");
