[SunHELP] DNS reverse lookups

What are the results if you use nslookup in debug mode?

If the mail server is a recent addition to the file, you did of course
increment the serial number and HUP the daemon, correct?

Hi

I wonder if anyone can help me.

I can't seem to do reverse lookups on my mail server.

I think the reverse file is correct but I am guessing something is wrong.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Below is the file:
; /var/named/rev.213.128.229
;
$TTL 1D   ; Default TTL in secs(1 day)

@       IN SOA ns.accesscomputing.co.uk. hostmaster.accesscomputing.co.uk. (
         2005090201      ; Serial number yyyymmddvv
         10800   ; Refresh  (3, was 8 hours)
         3600    ; Retry (1, was 2 hours)
         604800  ; Expire (7 days)
         86400   ; Minimum
)
;

; Descriptions of name servers for this domain
         IN      NS      ns.accesscomputing.co.uk.
