Registrar hosting DNS vs. myself



Hello,

Couple weeks ago I asked a question regarding hosting W2k3 DNS on our
servers and the few who responded, suggested, I should let the registrar
host the DNS instead. So I went to NetSol and configured DNS.

The problem is that NetSol does not do reverse DNS, and I need this for our
MX record otherwise some mail servers will not accept transport from our
mail server. NetSol suggested to me to move my DNS to ZoneEdit.com. The
next problem is that Zoneedit says I need to have a class C IP range before
I can do reverse DNS. I only have half class C. I can probably ask our T1
provider to host our DNS for a fee, but my company does not want to spend a
dime more on this. Plus we like to have more control over our DNS.

So, here is my question: If I host my own DNS with reverse DNS for half
class C IP range, whould my reverse DNS work?

Thank you
JS
