My guess is that there's a connectivity problem between
OpenSRS and the root servers. OpenSRS tried to do a query
to verify that the nameservers are legit, failed to get
a response from the registry before timing out, and
reported this as "non existent name servers".
Just speculation, mind you, but I did notice that
www.crsnic.net was VERY SLOW to resolve these names
when I tried it (as far as that goes, it was slow to resolve
my nameserver names, too).

Subject: Failing Registrations
Hi All,
I suspect this problem may be happening to others, so I wanted to bring
attention to it quickly. A customer recently (within the hour) tried to
register a domain name with ns1.ihigh.com and ns2.ihigh.com. The server
(API) rejected both of them with the following error:
<domain>: Registration Failed: ns1.ihigh.com does not exist. Nameserver
ns2.ihigh.com does not exist.
Both of these servers resolve correctly in DNS and also are listed correctly
in the root whois server. So, as far as I can tell, this should not be
happening. If anyone has any ideas as to why this would happen, please let
me know. Thanks!
