A non-working reverse ( as yours) will make nslookup fail.

Do yourself a favor, dump nslookup, learn to use dig instdead.

does not work, your subnet seems delegated to DNSMADEEASY.COM.

Are you supposed to have a /24 ? Or should DNSMADEEASY.COM. do a 
2317-style delagation ?

Here is the current delegation , ( where DNSMADEEASY.COM is Lame ) :
