reverse-zone and subnet

thnx - I wont get errors now (I was dead sure that this was what I've
tried first, but obviously I didnt which make me feel a bit stupd
now), but it doesnt work anyway ... (After I killed and restarted named
to flush the buffer)

# dig @localhost -x 213.229.42.97 +norecursion

if I leave the norecursion I get the currently assigned reverse-lookup
of my ISP ...

my local bind still doesnt feel responsible for this adress-range.


thnx,

ps: again the part of the configfile:

zone "29/96.42.229.213.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "master/213.229.42.96";
        allow-query { any; };
};~


and the zonefile:

$TTL 259200     ; 3 days
@       IN SOA  ns1.ihf-hr.org. pilsl.goldfisch.at. (
                                2002011804 ; serial
                                28800      ; refresh (8 hours)
                                7200       ; retry (2 hours)
                                2419200    ; expire (4 weeks)
                                86400      ; minimum (1 day)
