Having reverse lookup on your own nameservers is a good thing to have, but that's not where the rest of the world is going to query from, unless they're using your DNS. or supposedly an entry like... 140.174.20.254 IN NS ns2.uncanny.net. in the 20.174.140.in-addr records ( on the providers nameserver ) will work. This would (supposedly) cause remote queries to be redirected to your namesever. I've never tried it, though.
