This isn't the correct format to do a reverse DNS lookup. I believe
that it is
# dig 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa
I believe this is what you are looking for. If not, then it is not
setup correctly.

This is querying 192.168.1.1 port 53. This if I'm not mistaken is a
private network, and thus would have to be your machine. So it's just a
matter of forming your request in the correct format. Unless you
haven't set things up correctly.
This shouldn't be right - it should be showing me the records that I set
up yesterday, but for some reason it's not consulting my new DNS server.
How do I make it use my DNS server? Do I need to specify 127.0.0.1 in
my /etc/resolv.conf file? (All of this is on my server box)
I think everything is correct. Your query was just malformed. No
problem, try the query that I put, it should work.
