Based on the above data, you need to check the DNS server(s) specified
in /etc/resolv.conf and determine why they are resolving app01 and app02
as 192.168.3.0.  Secondly, you need to test the following:
 
  # host 192.168.3.220 
  # host XX.XXX.XXX.199 

Verify that the above reports the correct reverse lookup for those IP
addresses.

Yes, but you left one valid IP address in there. ;-)

RHEL has a package called caching-nameserver, install it and you should
be good.  FIRST backup your existing /etc/named.conf as well
as /var/named/*.  Caching-nameserver will add a few entires
to /etc/named.conf as well as a file or two to /var/named.

I would also encourage you to look at running named inside a chroot'ed
environment.  However that is a discussion for another day.  When you
are curious just google for "chroot named".

Assuming you have rndc all setup in /etc/named.conf, once you have
things running issue this command: "rndc querylog" and then tail
-f /var/log/messages to see how fast or slow DNS queries are being
resolved.  Don't leave querylog enabled on a busy box. ;-)
