I've just recently setup bind 9.3.0 and have been running if for a couple=
 of=20
days now. =A0It seems to be running allright, for instance I run a script=
 that
nightly reports spam to NANAS and other abuse addresses, it used to take=20
about 16-18s per report now its taking about 8s. So I'll have to assume t=
hat=20
named is working as it should. =A0The problem is I keep seeing these in m=
y=20
syslog periodically:

named[16451]: FORMERR resolving '156.180.255.207.in-addr.arpa/PTR/IN':=20
207.255.0.72#53

I'm pretty much new to setting something like this up. My resolv.conf is=20
below, the two commented out are Earthlinks nameservers, should those be=20
un-commented and used also?

nameserver 127.0.0.1
# nameserver 207.217.120.83
# nameserver 207.217.126.81

Thanks for any help.
