Non-Authoritative reponse?

Hi all!

I upgraded to BIND 8 several weeks ago, and it's been running pretty
well. The one problem still plaguing me is that I have a couple of
very-small subdomains that don't seem to be answering properly. When I
do an nslookup on them, the response I get is unauthoritative.

Here's an example:

$ nslookup aip.acp.org
Server:  exeter.acp.org
Address:  149.28.112.2

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    aip.acp.org
Address:  149.28.226.101

The problem is that exeter.acp.org *is* the authoritative server! So
what am I doing wrong? Here's the named file for that domain:

$TTL    3600
@               IN      SOA     exeter.acp.org. postmaster.acp.org. (
                                1999110400
                                3600
                                300
                                3600000
                                1800 )
                IN      MX      10 acpgate.acp.org.
                IN      MX      50 exeter.acp.org.
                IN      MX      50 defiant.acp.org.
                IN      A       149.28.226.101

$ORIGIN aip.acp.org.

Any help would be much appreciated.
