>Description:
Chapter 29.6.6.1 of the FreeBSD handbook has the following:

/*
zone "." {
    type slave;
    file "slave/root.slave";
    masters {
        192.5.5.241;    // F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.
    };
    notify no;
};
zone "arpa" {
    type slave;
    file "slave/arpa.slave";
    masters {
        192.5.5.241;    // F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.
    };
    notify no;
};
zone "in-addr.arpa" {
    type slave;
    file "slave/in-addr.arpa.slave";
    masters {
        192.5.5.241;    // F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.
    };
    notify no;
};
*/

F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET is no longer a nameserver for the in-addr.arpa zone.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Remove "in-addr.arpa" from the list of zones that can be transferred from F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.
