Firstly, You are not the controller of that C class.. ie when i nslookup'ed your class it was pinting to nac.net... Secondly, There are no pointer records available for your domain, this could be because you haven't created them, or more likely.. rthe first reason, that you don't have dns control over your class C's. Most likely what you have to do is call your upstream provider and ask to be able to create dns records for you ip's Mark >Just a quick question on name service... > >When I do an nslookup of an address outside of our C-classes, I get an >error message > >*** power.tbe.net can't find 207.99.0.1: Server failed > >However, If I look up one of our addresses, it comes up ok.
