Well, a PTR can point *anywhere* as long as you control the zone. The only
thing that made it remotely interesting was this SOA:
102.108.206.in-addr.arpa. 0 IN SOA pluto.bell-nexxia.net. help.bell-nexxia.net. 2003110400 28800 7200 604800 86400
It's interesting that googling for 'bell-nexxia.net' doesnt actually hit anything.
Who did you THINK owned that domain and address space?
