No, that message sounds like *the* *single* *most* FAQ on this list.

As thirty seconds with your favorite search engine will show you,
nslookup attempts to perform a reverse lookup on the address of the
server it's been told to talk to, and abends with that message if there
is no PTR record present for the name server's address.
