Default Reverse Lookup Zone

We have a DNS server on our Domain controller, which is set up with a forward lookup zone (Active Directory integrated) and to allow forwarding to our ISP DNS servers.

However, we have no default reverse lookup zone.

I seem to remember on our old NT4 DNS server it has records for in-arpa or something and long lists of cached addresses.

What is the default setup for a reverse lookup zone? Is it AD integrated?

Ideally I want to cache lookups to save having to forward to the ISP all the time. When I do an nslookup on a client it says "Can't find server name for <our dns server>"

External internet access is working, our internal IP range is 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.254, subnet 255.255.255.0.

Thanks - I don't really understand this!
