	I posted this last night.

	1. Upgrade your nameservers as you are runing a vulnerable version.
	   It's only a matter of time before your machine is taken over.

	2. Read your error logs as they will have been screaming at you
	   every time you loaded the server.  At the very least you don't
	   have any NS records for the zone in the zone file.

	3. multiple nameservers are for redunacy. There is no redunancy
	   when they are both the same machine.

tua.cc.                 55m44s IN NS    ns2.tua.cc.
