Correct, the setup they have created now is not valid.

Your agent should be able to create the nameservers with the appropriate
registry. If they don't know how, consider shopping for a different agent.

There is a single line on this in the netsol user guide:
http://www.accountmanageruserguide.com/04-ManageDomainName.html#sec4.1
but that's not too useful.
I see this particular domain has actually been registered through joker
and they have quite some more info on this topic at

FWIW neither name1.colonygiftcorporation.com nor name2 answer to dns queries,
so that's a problem too.
