Incomplete zone information
No named.boot or named.conf info
No log messages

No query results from nslookup or dig

No idea if the internic knows who you are

What actually have you told us except

It doesn't work
I delegated the reverse domain.

Why are you talking about the reverse domain if you don't care about it?

Plus, for security reasons, you don't want to give us the real names or
zones.  Take it from a professional.. If this is the security that you
are relying on, DON'T. Real security is done by blocking traffic and/or
authentication, not by hiding hostnames and addresses.
