Well possibly. But uunet have to change their DNS to say that your DNS is
the authoritative server for that range of addresses. They haven't done that bit.
Just as the .cc people had to add an entry to say that your name servers are
responsible for smartsoft.cc so do the 63.105.9 people have to add an entry to say
that your name servers are responsible for 63.105.9.32/27
