I suspect the other admins realised...
... they shouldn't have installed a package called "caching-nameserver" on
their authoritative name servers.
... they shouldn't have automatically upgraded all their authoritative
nameservers without testing (and/or should of had more than 1 authoritative
name server).
... and quietly copied the file back without drawing attention to themselves,
and blaimed it on:
http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ballard/bofh/bofhserver.pl
when the boss asked.
Fortunately my boss is too smart for bofh excuses.
