I am also not a DNS expert, but I was under the impression that you're
not supposed to list yourself as your primary NS, as it causes problems
if you need to update your own records or go offline. Maybe I'm wrong
though.
IIRC when I ran DNS services in the past, I listed a friend's machine as
my primary DNS, and he was set up to suck from my server periodically.
That way, I could tell him to update the IP address if it changed, and
all worked smoothly. Whether that was the "right" way to do things, I'm
not sure.

don't email me directly. I will most likely see your post before I read
