Ok, how do I fix it? I am using Cobalt Networks Servers, my ISP is dsl.net.
They have made my nameservers authoritive for 216.175.178.32/28 subnet 
by making each of the IPs a CNAME record on their nameservers.
I don't exactly know how to resolve my problem, is it my nameservers or is 
it my ISPs nameservers?
Thanks, for any help!
