Pat,
Ok I agree, If the registrar does not accept it, we will be forced to use two IPs.David | www.cliffsupport.com

Are you on a VPS? If so you can use your main shared IP as one NS and the second IP as your secondary.
As someone else mentioned you may be able to get by with one IP for both NS but I would imagine you will run into some issues down the road depending on what type of domains you host.
Many overseas registrants have very strict requirements, some will not even allow you to host NS on the same subnets.

unless you want to remain completely and utterly anonymous (for whatever reason) you can use the shared IPs of your host provider for any private ns. I do it all the time.
