Well thanks for that info. Allthough I still don't see a warning on your
page about this. None the less this is my fault.

Ironiclly when I tried to find this warning message, the reverse lookup on
the site worked. heh

Again, for the 100th time (sorry, but if people would just READ those 
warnings...), the www.DNSreport.com warning for reverse DNS entries 
specifies that you must reload the page to verify that there is no reverse 
DNS entry, due to that nasty bug in BIND.  If BIND v8 or earlier is used to 
resolve a reverse DNS entry, you have to deal with this bug one way or 
another.  That should be changing next week, though, as the sites are 
moving to a data center and will likely get changed to use BIND 9 (just 
because of this bug).

That's one of several reasons our reverse DNS tool at 
http://www.DNSstuff.com is so great -- it will bypass the BIND bug (it 
won't use BIND at all for resolving the reverse DNS entry).
