There is no 24.in-addr.arpa zone. There are specific delegations
underneith it.
There are no nameservers for this zone, as demonstrated by your
nslookup query.
Also, ARIN records the registrations made by the IANA. This was
the process as of four months ago, which was up to the point
that Jon left us. Josh has told me that the IANA still approves
every 24.in-addr.arpa delegation since this is the range for
cable deployment and cable is not reserved for the ARIN service
area. (yes cable does exist in Europe and Asia !)
