I am trying to setup a very simple reverse lookup only server on Windows=20=

2000 for the 159.225.148.0 range on a server. I have the following in =
the=20
\winnt\system32\dns\etc directory, with the binary installed in ..\bin.

07/21/2003  04:01p                  52  148.rev
07/21/2003  03:38p                 159  named.conf
07/21/2003  04:02p                   5  named.pid
07/21/2003  03:15p                  81  rndc.key

The ISC Bind service starts but the reverse lookups do not work. Why? I do =
not need forward lookups. This is for an inside only server for network=20
management. This is simplified to make for quick problem resolution, I
hope.

I want the minimum configuration required. One server only, no master
slave, etc. and just the reverse lookups to 159.225.148.1 to work.

My named.conf

// Provide reverse mapping for 159.225.148.0

zone "0.148.225.159.in-addr.arpa" {
        type master;
        file "c:\winnt\system32\dns\etc\148.rev";
        notify no;
};


My zone file


msfc2   IN      A       159.225.148.1


Please let me know what you guys think is wrong.
