Can nsupdate update the primary IP for a zone?
the domain is set up on the server 216.68.75.100 although that is not an
authoritative host for it.
this same syntax worked for adding a cname ssh.bodley.info, but it will not
modify the primary listing.

nsupdate -y bodley:thispassworksfortony
> server 127.0.0.1
> zone bodley.info
> update delete bodley.info A
> update add bodley.info 1800 A 24.29.6.102
>
> quit
[root at ns named]# nslookup bodley.info
