Odd, it's supposed to be authoritative and it's authoritative now.
Something was very strange over the weekend.  In case it's not obvious,
light.lightlink.com is my DNS mirror, who's also supposed to be
authoritative, ivan.iecc.com is my old server I'm trying to turn off,
sdn.iecc.com is the new one.
