Allowing an outside NS to host the PTR records for 1/4th of a class C?

[Drew Weaver]

Ok, this is configured now how I believe it should be..

--snip--

$TTL    3600
$ORIGIN 51.209.in-addr.arpa.
194     86400   IN      SOA     dns4.ee.net. hostmaster.ee.net. (

195     86400   IN      CNAME   195.192/26.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa.
196     86400   IN      CNAME   196.192/26.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa.
197     86400   IN      CNAME   197.192/26.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa.
198     86400   IN      CNAME   198.192/26.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa.
199     86400   IN      CNAME   199.192/26.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa.
200     86400   IN      CNAME   200.192/26.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa.

That should be all I need to do right? Is there anything else?? The zone
loads fine but it doesn't appear to be working.

Server:  dns4.ee.net
Address:  0.0.0.0

Name:    buckeyelake.com

Aliases:  200.194.51.209.in-addr.arpa

On our primary dns4;

Outside on the Internet..

bash$ nslookup 209.51.194.200
*** Can't find server name for address 209.197.234.5: Server failed

read RFC2317, or DNS&BIND, 4th ed, page 234+.

You generate 64 CNAMEs on your DNS for that reverse subnet that are 
resolved as 64 PTR's on his DNS.
