[Pdns-users] Query throttled message in pdns_recursor trace log

Hi Remi,

Thanks for your reply.
I assume this mechanism is a feature that powerdns has, to protect server
resources. But, is there a way to reconfigure this throttling mechanism ? I
have tried to decrease server-down-throttle-time by hoping that once the
authoritative answered my query, powerdns will keep the record in its
cache.
Because, if i try to use other dns recursor software, they can resolve this
domain.

Regards,
