That did work. However, this means that I would have to watch the
zone to see
- if the IP addresses of their nameservers change
- if their nameservers change

Here, I can see that the nameserver is giving the right replies to all
queries except the NS queries. My guess is that they must have
transferred the zone from one nameserver to another
(ns[56].zenexpress.com. to ns[12].webpresenceworld.com. for
e-nxt.com) and updated the domain registration, but did not bother to
change the NS record on the new nameservers.

I was hoping that either bind should catch such cases automatically or
allow some workaround which need not be monitored later.
