Murphy's Law -- as soon as I write to the list, I find the DNS prob. One of my PTR records had a typo -- was PRE instead of PTR and that did it..

We are failing to receive mail from some places; one being verizon and some within our group are questioning if Declude is somehow preventing the mail from getting through. I do not think that is the case. 2.) I got a note from ARIN that our name server for reverse DNS is a lame name server. I was able to verify this using www.DNSreport.com I have looked into this and undertand that the primary name server for 194.242.199.in-adr.arpa (dns.inet911.com) is not answering authoritatiively. I have checked the configuraton and believe the delegation to be set up correctly. Is there something I'm missing in the zone file set up (see below)? Any other ideas of where else to look. Here is (part of) my zone file for reverse DNS ; ; Zone file for Reverse DNS records, file 194.242.199.IN-ADDR.ARPA ; $ORIGIN 194.242.199.IN-ADDR.ARPA. ; ; Authority record ; @ IN SOA dns.inet911.com. fred.inet911.com.
