I can't seem to find a NETSH command to create reverse lookup zones. Is there a command to create reverse lookup zones?
Thanks,

You can use dnscmd to manage DNS Server from the command line.
For more info, type
dnscmd /?

There is also two vbscript that allow you to create primary zones, perhaps you can rebuild them to make reverse lookup zones as well:

Don't use the first link posted. It's a copy/paste of code that is incomplete. In it, the objDNSZone is expected to already be instatiated outside of the function. The second link, however, appears to access the CreateZone method of the MicrosoftDNS_Zone appropriately -- at least using a cursory look. If you are not comfortable with using WMI or scripting, I'd highly recommend using Bigteddy's suggestion of using dnscmd.exeThere is also two vbscript that allow you to create primary zones, perhaps you can rebuild them to make reverse lookup zones as well:
