There is no record for the LRP in the primary DNS. Now that I added one and the associated PTR it works. However, why did it work with the ISP DNS servers? Why would it need a record for the LRP just to be used as a forwarder? My primary DNS uses a set of forwarders that don't know my servers exist. Does this have something to do with the fact that it is a caching server vs. authoritative. Is adding a PTR the only solution?
