Thanks for the info. I wish the bind error messages were more informative.
Anyway my zone file now looks like this, but still doesn't work:
$ORIGIN 192/27.233.107.199.in-addr.arpa.
@ IN SOA ultraoptions.com. root.ultraoptions.com. (
2002062502 ; Serial
8H ; Refresh
2H ; Retry
1W ; Expire
1D) ; Minimum TTL
NS ultraoptions.com.
NS 190.230.15.64.in-addr.arpa.
; MX 10 mail.selectacast.net.
;222 PTR ultraoptions.com.
195 PTR p1.selectacast.net.
196 PTR xis.xtenit.com.
197 PTR apps.xtenit.com.
205 PTR intellimail.yellowbrix.com.
198 PTR p2.selectacast.net.
I made xis an A instead of a CNAME and took out ultraoptions.com because it isn't actually
at that ip address right now, but it still isn't working and bind won't give me meaningful
error messages.
BTW what is this h2n program you are using? I found a different h2n but it doesn't appear
to be the same thing.
