Well, it was easier than explaining exactly what you need to do.  But
*please* copy -questions on your replies.  You're the fourth person
I've had to say this to today.

OK.  I don't see any secondary name servers on either domain.
ns.ahoc.net doesn't have reverse mapping, though that's not likely to
be the problem.

Default Server:  ns.ahoc.net
Address:  205.218.75.65

> 205.218.75.65
Server:  ns.ahoc.net
Address:  205.218.75.65

*** ns.ahoc.net can't find 205.218.75.65: Non-existent host/domain
> ahoc.net
Server:  ns.ahoc.net
Address:  205.218.75.65

ahoc.net        nameserver = ahoc.net
ahoc.net        internet address = 205.218.75.65

Let's see a copy of a rejected header.
