	Why is everytime someone asks this question they don't tell
	us the domainnames involved?

	The NS records should appear on the gtld servers the next time
	the zone is built (twice a day).  This can be tested like:

		dig +norec example.com @a.gtld-servers.net

	You can also test for old glue records that refer to the http
	server by
	
		dig +norec www.example.com @a.gtld-servers.net

	If you find them you need to contact your registrar to get them
	corrected / deleted.
