We now have a .com name and wish to redirect accesses to this domain name back to our .nz address, and to do this we have to register our nameserver(s) with the Internic.
NSI used to have forms for doing this (registering the nameservers names against a particular IP address), which you could download and submit. IIRC there was no chargge. But it did take a week or two to process. Once done you can use your .co.nz (etc) nameserver names that you've registered in your .com zone files, delegation recorsd, etc. If you don't want to wait that long, the quick hack (which I've used before) is smiply to add some extra A records into your .com zone for the nameservers (ns1.example.com, ns2.example.com pointing at the correct IP addresses), and then register the .com zone with those nameservers as the ones for the delegation. At least the NSI system, and maybe others, can then insert the necessary glue records when you do it that way. But it does mean you have two names for your nameservers.
