Doh!
My apologies for the fat-fingering / gibberish... looks like this
year's flu has really knocked me for a loop or whatever... (though
now this is reduced to why I was getting lame server delegation
warnings (for this zone) during this same incident -- though that's
hardly something for NANOG, itself).
Thanks for the "kick in the head," Phil...
Regards,
Russell
