Thanks for the offer.  As this is an IP addresss in RackSpace's
network would be a great DNS server for me.


I have configured you in but...

   $ host 72.3.245.174
   Name: toybox1.fryremoon.net
   Address: 72.3.245.174

   $ host toybox1.fryremoon.net
   toybox1.fryremoon.net does not exist, try again

   $ whois fryremoon.net
   ...
   No match for "FRYREMOON.NET".
   ...

   $ dig mx fyremoon.net
   ...
   fyremoon.net.           86280   IN      MX      0 toybox.fyremoon.net.
   ...

   $ dig toybox.fyremoon.net
   ...
   toybox.fyremoon.net.    86207   IN      A       72.3.245.174
   ...

I think you need to look at the reverse DNS settings for
your server.  I would guess that someone at RackSpace can't type.  :-)
