you get exactly this name? yes?

then you have been told the solution a few weeks ago:

Fix your DNS

Your dns-reverse-zone entry of ais-back01 is missing a dot.
at the moment it reads something like this

1         in ptr ais-back01.mydomain.net

and it has to read like this

1         in ptr ais-back01.mydomain.net.

that trailing dot in the name is vital.
it tells bind/named not to append the 84.25.196.in-addr.arpa stuff
of the zone-definition as it would without it.
