It's all part of the registration of the domain name. What servers are to
be queryed for that information? A name server can be authoritative for
more than one domain and I am sure it's just a database thing.
Besides, I run DNS servers with many domains hosted on them. I want to move
one or more DNS servers to a new subnet. It's much easier for me to look up
the record for my DNS server and input that change once and all effected
domains are updated. I wouldn't want to move a DNS server and then have to
change potentially hundreds of domain records when all I really need to do
is change one record the DNS server.
Besides there is no charge for registering nameservers. And is done
automatically the first time a DNS server is used in a domain record.

Why is it that a machine designated as a nameserver must be registered. A
seperate process from registering a domain name? And where is this
registeration database located?
