I've seen a surprising number of attempted recursive DNS requests 
against unpublished non-recursive DNS servers in the last 24 hours or 
so, many of them obviously probes of some sort (query for "." IN NS, 
eg).

Is anyone else seeing this?  Is it new?  Or did some botnet just reach 
this corner of the IP space?
