You might need to delegate it from the parent domain. It sounds like you 
are using your ISP as a DNS secondary, so emerge.net's DNS ``knows'' 
you, but the rest of the world needs a way to get from (for example) 
emerge.net to squirrel.emerge.net. If emerge.net doesn't know that 
you're handling the squirrel.emerge.net subdomain, the buck stops there 
for the rest of the world, whereas it may resolve nicely internally.
