ro. domain has a lame server "ns.eu.net" <sic>, but I don't
think that is the problem.
infoland.ro have only one nameserver, but it is known by two
names, infoland.ro and ns.infoland.ro, this might cause some
problems and is best avoided I suspect.
I'd suggest you speak with the registrar and change the NS for
infoland.ro from infoland.ro to ns.infoland.ro.
As a temporary fix you can probably add an "A" record for
infoland.ro to the infoland.ro zone file pointing to
217.10.200.134
i.e. "INFOLAND.RO. 86400 IN A 217.10.200.134"
It queries ro zone for NS and gets "infoland.ro".
Later when refreshing it must query ns.infoland.ro for the
address of infoland.ro, and be told it doesn't exist.
You need a backup nameserver as well!
