That all makes perfect sense. The VPS was originally set up to have
hostname jrh.co.uk, when I thought that was free. On the 123reg website
it allows you to give two _different_ nameservers for your domain. As I
only have the one, I named my own and used the 123reg site's. Does this
mean I need another VPS?
