Hi,
Given the previous logs where the nameserver replies "REFUSED", could you
check that the zone file for the reverse zone is set up correctly in the
overall nameserver configuration.
Is 35.84.119.85.in-addr.arpa. configured in your nameserver configuration
file?
If so, are you able to share the snippet for that?
