bad horizontal referral

[mauromarzorati]

Hello, I'm trying to have a separate zone for a subdomain of my primary domain. I'm having trouble creating this zone (new domain) with the Free DNS GUI, which complains that the zone does not pass verification requiring delegation to ns[1-5].he.net be done first. I have done this, and yet the validation still fails with the new name. To verify that the NS records are active, I run `dig +trace` and receive bad (horizontal) referral message from ns[1-5].he.net. So I'm unclear how to overcome this blocker when creating the additional zone. The zone in question is `test.marzorati.us`

After waiting a few days, I was finally able to create the domain/zone, and after a few minutes later the bad horizontal referral message did go away. I surmise that there's several-hours-long delay in the delegation verification process, since no work was done over the weekend on my part to advance the test facility (want to have settings for disabling email functions on a given domain) and on resuming today the project can advance.
