Just on a lark, I ran Men&Mice's DNS Expert software against the 
zone mcast.net.  It found what looks to be typos in three of the RRs.

o The reverse record "25.1.0.224.in-addr.arpa." does not refer to the 
  host "ncb-pro.mcast.net."
    The reverse record "25.1.0.224.in-addr.arpa." refers to 
    "nbc-pro.mcast.net.", but it should refer to 
    "ncb-pro.mcast.net.".

o The reverse record "83.1.0.224.in-addr.arpa." does not refer to the 
  host "dtn-mc.mcast.net."
    The reverse record "83.1.0.224.in-addr.arpa." refers to 
    "drn-mc.mcast.net.", but it should refer to 
    "dtn-mc.mcast.net.".

o The reverse record "115.1.0.224.in-addr.arpa." does not refer to 
  the host "simple-multicast.mcast.net."
    The reverse record "115.1.0.224.in-addr.arpa." refers to 
    "simple-multiast.mcast.net.", but it should refer to
    "simple-multicast.mcast.net.".

I sent this info to iana at isi.edu (listed in the SOA record for 
mcast.net)a while ago, but no action was taken and I got no
response.

I thought that this forum might be the place to turn to for action, 
though this probably isn't a earth-shattering problem.
