Neither 'dig' nor 'nslookup' show the reverse DNS.

Interesting ...

...
166.236.213.in-addr.arpa.  57m5s IN SOA  dns.netthus.no. hostmaster.netthus.no. (
					28		; serial
					1H		; refresh
					10M		; retry
					1D		; expiry
					1H )		; minimum

166.236.213.in-addr.arpa.  4d17h57m4s IN NS  ns.ost.eltele.no.
166.236.213.in-addr.arpa.  4d17h57m4s IN NS  ns.rogaland.eltele.no.

Is the registrar with which you are dealing netthus.no or eltele.no?
Or are they just different names used by the same company?  The public
name servers are the eltele.no machines, but they seem to be slaves to
a hidden master.

The master must delegate.
