The cs.unlv.edu domain has the following record:
cs.unlv.edu. IN NS egr-stu-fs.egr.unlv.edu.
Since NS records are supposed to point to primary names,
egr-stu-fs.egr.unlv.edu should have an A record, but instead it has a CNAME
record:
egr-stu-fs.egr.unlv.edu. IN CNAME egr-fac-fs-18.egr.unlv.edu.
Unless you're the administrator of the egr.unlv.edu domain, this isn't your
problem. However, it looks like they've already fixed it; the CNAME record
showed up in my server's cache the first time i looked, but then it went
away.
