Is there a specific way to set a name server so that clients are always *forced* to use an autoritative name server?

UltraDNS and some others have mentioned little features they have, but it only hints at the possibility that somewhere in the DNS spec.

I don't know what clients you are talking about but those clients need to be able to follow referrals. With named, you can turn off recursion support. It will then refer clients to the next appropriate authority like the root servers who will, in turn, refer them to the appropriate name servers and so on until an authoritative name server is reached.

I hope this is what you want.
