He can also pay someone like networksolutions to host the domain (like $50 
year).  They offer it as a service and give you a gui for managing DNS.

I doubt that will help.  All those bogus queries are probably leftover
from the DDoS that shut him down in the first place.

As long as he's using the monkeys.com first-level domain, queries for the
second- and third-level domains are still going to come first to his
nameserver, even if they subsequently get directed elsewhere.

One thing to try would be to have monkeys.com declare some other
nameserver to be authoritative for the relays.monkeys.com second-level
domain, but he may have no choice but to either host the primary DNS for
monkeys.com somewhere else, or abandon monkeys.com entirely.
