Not that I know of.
But you should fix the named problem anyway:
ticso@cicely6# host -a 216.12.228.198
rcode = 3 (Non-existent domain), ancount=0
Host not found.
Exit 1

It looks like the complete 216.in-addr.arpa is not known by the root
servers - which is bad.
Your provider should contact ARIN to setup a functional reverse mapping.
