DNS reverse lookup doesn't work from outside

[vijay]

Hi Kevin/list users,

I have Dedicated T1 line from SBC, I configured Bind 9 on Solaris box for 
our domain by name buydeal.com,
dns-01.buydeal.com is the name-server which is bind to 68.249.200.20.
You can check this online it's not doing reverse lookup, but on the same 
system(dns-01.buydeal.com) it does reverse lookup.
