this comes from the DNS server not being able to look up a PTR (reverse D=
NS,=20
IP to NAME) for itself. Either create a reverse zone on the DNS server (i=
f=20
that server uses itself for DNS) or create the reverse zone on the DNS se=
rver=20
the DNS server uses. Or just use dig instead of nslookup.
