There is a problem with the nameserver 10.26.38.41.
Type:
>nslookup
Then at the prompt, type:
>server 10.26.38.41
(you should get an error, based on your post)
then at the nslookup prompt type:
>host1
(you should get the .... 41 server above)
Then try:
>10.26.38.41
(I assume you get an error).
If you do, you have to fix the PTR record for 10.26.38.41

nslookup
NSLOOKUP(1) BIND9 NSLOOKUP(1)
NAME
nslookup - query Internet name servers interactively
SYNOPSIS
nslookup [-option] [name | -] [server]
DESCRIPTION
Nslookup is a program to query Internet domain name servers. Nslookup has two modes: interactive and non-interactive. Interactive mode
allows the user to query name servers for information about various hosts and domains or to print a list of hosts in a domain.
Non-interactive mode is used to print just the name and requested information for a host or domain.
ARGUMENTS
Interactive mode is entered in the following cases:
1. when no arguments are given (the default name server will be used)
2. when the first argument is a hyphen (-) and the second argument is the host name or Internet address of a name server.
Non-interactive mode is used when the name or Internet address of the host to be looked up is given as the first argument. The optional
second argument specifies the host name or address of a name server.
Options can also be specified on the command line if they precede the arguments and are prefixed with a hyphen. For example, to change the
default query type to host information, and the initial timeout to 10 seconds, type:
nslookup -query=hinfo -timeout=10
INTERACTIVE COMMANDS
host [server]
Look up information for host using the current default server or using server, if specified. If host is an Internet address and the
query type is A or PTR, the name of the host is returned. If host is a name and does not have a trailing period, the search list is
used to qualify the name.
To look up a host not in the current domain, append a period to the name.
server domain
lserver domain
Change the default server to domain; lserver uses the initial server to look up information about domain, while server uses the current
default server. If an authoritative answer can't be found, the names of servers that might have the answer are returned.

(Default = 53; abbreviation = po)

response.
