	This should be a hostname not a IP address.  It should also
	not be an alias and should match what it in the parent zone,
	or more correctly the parent zone should be a copy of what is
	here.

	e.g.
		NS	ns1.r65.org.
		NS	ns1.r65.org.

	ns1 and ns2 are nameservers, hence the MUST be A records.
	e.g.

	ns1 	A	64.219.34.34
	ns1	A	64.219.34.33

> ns1             IN      CNAME   public.r65.org.
