Being demanding in a forum where you're asking for free technical
support isn't likely to win you much extra effort.

Please train your mail client to post in plain ascii. This message is
exceptionally hard to read for the majority of us here who use ascii
clients.

Above, you say that you want lookups for 1.148.225.159.in-addr.arpa to
work, but you're not defining a zone that encapsulates that. You
probably want 148.225.159.in-addr.arpa rather than
0.148.225.159.in-addr.arpa.

This isn't a zone file. Zone files must have an SOA record. Further,
what you're defining here is an A record for
msfc2.0.148.225.159.in-addr.arpa, when what you seem to want is a PTR
for 1.148.225.159.in-addr.arpa.
