	This is the reverse-lookup problem.  Without getting a copy of 
their complete /etc/named.conf contents, and then grepping for your 
names, you have no idea what they have registered on your behalf.

	Assuming they allow zone-transfers, this could work.  But, you'd 
have to know what zones to set yourself up as a secondary for. 
However, if you knew that, you wouldn't need to set yourself up as a 
secondary for them, since you could then just go to the registrar and 
get the appropriate delegation data changed.
