		209 as of midnight last.  I _may_ have things a bit closer
		now.  I can ping ns1 from a server somewhere in SoCal, and 
		nslookup finds stuff also.

		(krap hit two fans simultaneously circa 29-30 Sept which was 
		when I last got at this.  I forgot to update the Serial
		number.)  --Ordinarrily, this would be an excuse  for not
		getting the DNS files right; not considering.  Anyway, try 
		ping and dig and nslookup... .
