    I've been trying to work with someone to move my DNS name of
    snowwolf.org to the new machine, but just when I thought the IP was
    going to transfer, it doesn't and a 'dig' returns the old DNS
    entries...

    here's what I'm talking about.
    # dig -t ns snowwolf.org
    ;; ANSWER SECTION:
    snowwolf.org. 1680 IN NS ns.vulpes.net.
    snowwolf.org. 1680 IN NS ns1.transwarp.com.
    snowwolf.org. 1680 IN NS ns1.wintermoon.org.
    snowwolf.org. 1680 IN NS ns2.transwarp.com.

    where it should be like this:
    ;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
    snowwolf.org. 43588 IN NS ns1.transwarp.com.
    snowwolf.org. 43588 IN NS ns3.wintermoon.org.

    The later is how the servers are setup on my registrar, and for a time
    they should correctly (but incorrect IP), but when the 43588 reached
    0, it pulled the wrong information from _somewhere_ and now I'm back
    to the old DNS settings....

    Since the IP of my machine won't change, I'm tempted just to create a
    DNS server on it to serve my own name.. but I havn't found the proper
    documentation to help me in that.

    So what I'm asking for is two fold... firstly, I'd like an explanation
    as to possible reasons for the jump-back in information.. and
    secondly, I'd like to be pointed a good help site for making proper
    named/bind conf files (in particular, .zone entries).
