do you mean you have fixed the NS records and all the others with a
fully qualified domain name?

more than a misspelling it was a tongue-twister! :)

Well, strictly speaking it only needs the A record to match, and it
does. Some people want a complete correspondency or a closed cycle A
of PTR of IP = IP . Since your PTR is
138.67-19-7.reverse.theplanet.com but this has no A record, you
cannot do better than what you are doing.
