Len is more than 100% correct.  This is why when you create a host in
the internet, you had better be sure you want to do this.  You replace
DNS servers with new hardware, fine.  That is what secondary DNS is for,
you drop #1, replace and resetup the zones, and bring it back up.  That
name, however, IS that box, and if you need to change that NS name, it
is a real pain in the neck.  This is also why large registrars like
Network Solutions have a policy that HOSTS cannot have names like: www,
mail, ftp, etc.  You really should have NS servers with names that do
not have another well-known function.  NS1 & NS2 work nicely for this.
