Network solutions will allow you to register each nameserver once.  So if you 
call your nameserver ns1.mianetworks.com, then when your friend wants that as 
his secondary, have him call it ns1.mianetworks.com, and not 
ns2.grillpiece.com.  So  you should both register with ns1.mianetworks.com 
and ns1.grillpiece.com as your nameservers.
