Data dnsstuff says no reverse dns in place, but there is!
Folks...have just stumbled on an issue where DNSstuff says there is no reverse dns in place when there is...as evidenced by a reverse check from 3 diff networks.

Any advice why this would be happening (DNSstuff-wise) would be appreciated.

70.133.177.12.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer ns2.mounthunger.com.

17.133.177.12.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer ns1.mounthunger.com.
