part.

Before you buy.

are youtrying to disable  the reverse lookup proccess at the unixhost ?
I don't see a logical reason on why or how this could be done without
disabling DNS on that machine ? (i.e removing the resolv.conf and dns
entry in nsswitch.conf )

If you are looking at stopping the DNS server for having authoritive
records for a in-addr.arpa zone, then just remove that zone from you're
nameserver or entries.
( I don't understand why you would have a need for this )

I think if you give us some more information about the problem you're
trying to solve, you'll get better ideas.
