Problem with Authoritative PTR Records

Hi.

  I'm trying to eliminate a Microsoft DNS server with bind, I ran into
this problem I cannot figure out.  I have all my zones loaded (domains
and ARPA).  If I query a domain (for example www.bivapr.net), it comes
up as auth. Answer which is what I expect, but if I query 216.24.240.20
it doesn't come up auth. And want recursion. It seems Im doing something
that the DNS server don't know that he is Authoritative for that ARPA
zone.  Here's a snip of my config and zone. Any ideas as what im I doing
wrong?

Thanks
