Worked for me. Did you actually set up a reverse mapping domain withe "IP 
reverse mapping" subfunction under DNS.Config?  If so, the reverse mappings 
should be in the file in /var/named named with your network number 
(xxx.yyy.zzz).

You might also need to know that having the name server do the in-addr.arpa 
nameserving for a class "C" network only works if the higher level network 
authority has delegated this function to you.  In my case, my ISP has to do 
the delegation.

Hope this helps.
