On one of my DNS servers when I go to do an NSLOOKUP I get
the message:

*** Can't find server name for address 172.29.247.11: Non-
existent domain

172.29.247.11 is the IP address of this local DNS server.
What do I need to do?

Thanks

Create a reverse lookup zone for hte 172.29.247.x Subnet, the create a PTR
record for IP 11 and give it a name. You could also allow dynamic updates to
the zone and run ipconfig /registerdns.
