But it really shouldn't matter unless you are using their name servers because our name servers are set as authoritative for the domain and therefor should be queried for the zone. I am totally perplexed as the what is going on with this host name in this zone. I have never seen this problem before. Does anyone know what could be causing this and how to get this fixed?
