Indeed. secondary.com slaves two zones for me, free of charge. There
has been essentially no change in service: it's still free,
secondary.com username/passwd information was preserved, and TSIG keys were
preserved. The only change required was adding two machines to an
also-notify {} clause for each zone. As a little guy making use of a
free service, I expected to be the first to be dumped if ultradns had
bad motives. That's not happened and it looks like it's not going to.

As far as I'm concerned, there's no need to worry about secondary.com.
