OK...  
I deserved that one...
Allow me to clarify...
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...
