I found a typo in my revp.192.168.11 file.

Still not working, I get a timeout from nslookup on the windows box
stating: ..Can't find server name for address 192.168.11.1...

Below is my revp192.168.11 file:

;
; reverse pointers for 192.168.11.0 subnet
;
$ORIGIN .
$TTL 1D ;
11.168.192.in-addr.arpa IN SOA  basil.rebelchicken.net.
hostmaster.rebelchicken.net. (

              28800      ; refresh (8 hours)
              14400      ; retry (4hours)
              2419200    ; expire (4 weeks)
              86400      ; minimum (1 day)
              )
; define the authoratative name server
              NS      basil.rebelchicken.net.
$ORIGIN 11.168.192.in-arpa.
$TTL 1D
; our hosts, in numeric order
1             PTR     basil.rebelchicken.net.
2             PTR     sage.rebelchicken.net.

Maybe I need to go back and do a bit more reading...
