I would expect them to time out if your dns server knows nothing about the reverse zone; give or take how you connect to the rest of the DNS. What messages about zones loading did you get when you restarted bind? Where there any crabby comments in the log file about not loading master/summitnjhome-reverse.db due to error(s)? Was that file mentioned at all? --Jon Radel jon@radel.com
