Default nslookup error

Hello,

When I use nslookup I get the error:

*** Can't find server name for address 192.168.3.1: Non-existent domain
*** Default servers are not available
Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.3.1

192.168.3.1 is my gateway's address (the router)

I have my TCP/IP settings to automatically fetch both my IP and the DNS
servers.

Doing some searching on the net some people say I need to create a PTR
record for this reverse lookup - but I can't figure out how to do this. One
article says there should be a DNS Management tool under Control Panel -
Administrative Tools but I do not have this...

How do I resolve this?

WinXP SP3
