Kevin, you're right that there's no option. But blocking UDP in the
firewall isn't going to fly, the recursor only falls back to TCP on
TC=1 (truncated) answers, not on UDP timeout or error.
In general it's a bad idea to force TCP, as it increases load on both
recursor and authoritative servers. B
I don't think there are any configuration options in the recursor do to this,
so you'll have to do it in a firewall system outside of the recursor. Blocking
all outbound traffic to UDP port 53 would take care of it.

I,m looking for a way of forcing all outgoing queries from recursor to
authoritative servers to be TCP.
I'm experiencing some packet discards in my platform internal network and i
think forcing to TCP may help overcome some of the problems caused by
discards.
Does anybody know how to do
