Actually you had "zone name covisp.net=E2=80=9D which told nsupdate to =
update the =E2=80=9Cname.=E2=80=9D zone as it was treated as =E2=80=9Czone=
 name=E2=80=9D.  Nsupdate then when and looked up the SOA for name and =
found ac1.nstld.com is the primary server.

name.			86400	IN	SOA	ac1.nstld.com. =
info.verisign-grs.com. 1594079077 1800 900 604800 86400

Nsupdate can normally determine the name of the zone that has to be =
updated so most of the time you don=E2=80=99t need to specify the zone.  =
There are a few cases, like when adding delegating NS records or glue to =
the parent zone you have to override the normal zone discovery =
procedure.
