I'm sure you do too :-)
I went to lunch and came back, and now without further changes, lookups
are working(!):
# nslookup xxx.xxx.xxx.82
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
Name: host1.mydomain.com
Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.82
Aliases: 82.xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa
While I'm quite pleased to see this resolved, though the solution seems
very strange to me. I still can't make sense out of how the 5 octet scheme
makes this work, or why the lookups come out as they do.
But in any case, thanks for helping me to solve the problem! Thanks to
various other earlier responders as well...
