I have DNS running authoritative for my home network and caching for the outside world. I have forward lookups running. I'm having problems getting reverse lookups going. I should have said reverse lookups were what was broken when I originally posted this. (I'm back inth the DNS and Bind book from O'Reilly.) Is it complaining because reverse lookups are not working right or should I be looking elsewhere in DNS? Cheers...
