Then if you have one nameserver hosting both, and you use nslookup,
you'll be able to get it to return all the zones it is a nameserver for,
and all the *nameservers* *it* knows about.

Doesn't matter. If it (the DNS server) knows it, or other DNS servers as
nameservers, you can get it to list them.

ls -t ns

If you can't list the ns records actually on the nameserver for the
domain / zone - something is wrong.

As above - something is wrong, here.

You should be able to list the ns records within the current zone -
otherwise, how else would DNS know?
