Selective forwarding for reverse zones?

[Treptow, Craig]

I'm sorry.  I negelected to mention that in between messages, I cleaned up the
config of the foobar.com server and DO have the PTR records in the
db.192.168.40 file.  Here it is:

# pg db.192.168.40
$TTL    3600
@       IN SOA  netmon4.foobar.com. treptow.craig.foobar.com. (
                2000041100  ; serial yyyy-mm-dd-serial
                10800       ; Refresh after 3 hours
                3600        ; Retry after 1 hour
                604800      ; Expire after 1 week
                21600 )     ; Minimum TTL of 6 hours

                IN      NS      netmon4.foobar.com.

201             IN      PTR     netmon4.foobar.com.
26              IN      PTR     craig.foobar.com.
# 

It does work on the foobar.com server:

# nslookup craig
Server:  netmon4.foobar.com
Address:  192.168.40.201

Name:    craig.foobar.com
Address:  192.168.40.26

# nslookup 192.168.40.26
Server:  netmon4.foobar.com
Address:  192.168.40.201

Name:    craig.foobar.com
Address:  192.168.40.26

# 

The other details are the same before, as is the behavior displayed on the
"nameserver1" machine

In your earlier message you showed an excerpt from db.192.168 on the
foobar.com server.  But the above section says that the file is
db.192.168.40.  Make sure you put the PTR record in the correct file!
