Well then, the original asker should get one of the Web-based or GUI
DNS config apps we've discussed, use it to generate slave zones on the
remote name servers, and then claim that on Unix they propagated.  But
it's not the same thing as propagating the zone by DNS.

Hmmph.  To be fair, I don't think that's exactly what was claimed.  ;-/

But they can be disabling, if they restrict your degrees of freedom.
