Reverse DNS

Hello:

I'm having some trouble getting reverse DNS to work with the subnet my ISP
recently assigned. I'm hoping you can help.

I have a network, 216.183.241.32/27. According to my ISP (Norlight),
everything is set up correctly on their end so that we have control over
reverse look ups.

I have a zone set up in QDNS called 241.183.216.in-addr.arpa. When my DNS
server is queried directly with an IP address (say 216.183.241.36), it
responds correctly, however the rest of the internet can't resolve the IP.

My ISP says that we need a zone named 32.241.183.216.in-addr.arpa. However,
when queried directly, the server can't resolve the IP and neither can
anyone else on the internet.

I do have this zone set up exactly like my previous reverse zone for a full
class C. I just can't figure out why this isn't working.

Thanks for you help.

-A.
