Alas, the fact that people can arbitrarily create vanity nameservers pointing at IPs they don't operate is a long standing beef. It goes back to an old wish I've expressed in the past that there needs to be some kind of nameserver operator protocol where ops can have some degree of control over entities that get delegated to them (from external registrars) or host entities using their IPs. But I don't see it happening. - mark -- Mark E.
