External DNS

I'm quite new to DA, and do not wish to run my own nameservers, so I got 2 nameservers I can use from my domain seller.

However: I wish customers who I offer hosting including domain registration to manage their own dns records if they like.

Now I read the trick with the hidden master. Can I make these dns servers from my reseller to become slaves after my hidden master? (I do not have access to their systems) Or am I missing an important DNS functionality here?
 
It's quite possible, as long as you have a method of telling the slaves which zones they're supposed to slave for you. The rest is just a basic hidden master-setup which you can read about alot of places. Try a google-search.

There are also several threads about this on these forums.
 
Thanks!
I will try to look this up :)
Can this by any way be done with the SOA record in the zone file?
( Then I know if i'm on the right way )
