The dig command I sent you before will check for a PTR record for the
domain zone file. This is different than the PTR in the reverse zone
file. Is 35 the least significant byte in the IP of the host you are
trying to resolve a PTR from? If not, try going to www.dnsstuff.com, put
the IP of that you want to resolve to the domain in the Spam database
lookup form. The first record should show you if a PTR record exists for
the domain.
