Guys, thanks a lot! dig shows that everything works fine, and I am now
registering my ns1. and ns2. with NETSOL. I guess in this case I do not
need to ask my ISP to add reverse lookup pointer -- everybody should be able
to get it from NETSOL. Please let me know if I am wrong and it is better to
do both.
Thank you,
Denis
