We're using OpenSRS and I can only register a name server under the domain
as the master user and the DNS server is a subset of the domain..

IE: Spaz.HuntsvilleAL.COM is the machine name, but it's registered in DNS
as Spaz.Catonic.NET. *Sigh*. I have control of HuntsvilleAL.COM as well,
and it didn't make a difference.
