DOC has a bit of a fit - 7 errors omitted - looking for
flashdance.cx.

The ultradns name servers for domain CX don't appear to be
providing glue for the the ns{1,2,3}.flashdance.cx name servers,
this could explain your problems.

The guessable SLD domains for CX all use 'out of bailiwick'
nameservers (gov.cx, ac.cx etc) which I guess tells us a little
more than that they aren't going to see this problem.

The SOA for CX returned indicates that the zones are uptodate so
this probably won't fix itself.

There probably is something wrong with 9.2.1 but I doubt this is
it.

 With apologies to those copied if I'm completely wrong, but I
figured you'd want to know sooner than later.
