i created a zone sub.example.com which contained only the two NS records
- no SOA.  when I did this, i actually received no results at all trying
   to query sub.example.com.  adding the SOA record resulted in me
   getting the soa records for zone zone when I dig it, but this doesn't
   appear to be like delegation.  an soa record implies that i am
   authoritative for the zone, not that i want to delegate authority.

   i still cannot delegate a zone.  has anyone here actually successfully
   delegated a zone to another server using DLZ?  i still contend that
   this is not possible.
