I will like to find out if my PTR record is programmed correctly. I have the following configuration for me DNS server but when doing reverse lookup on the IP its giving me DNS name + the zone name. [root@ns1 ~]# host 10.0.0.9 127.0.0.1 Using domain server: Name: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 Aliases: 9.0.0.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer mail.bitco.co.za.0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. Any reson for the zone to be displaying after the domain name for the PTR Record: $TTL 3600 @ IN SOA ns1.bitco.co.za. jaco.bitco.co.za. ( 2014021206 ; serial, todays date + todays serial # 7200 ; refresh, seconds 540 ; retry, seconds 604800 ; expire, seconds 86400 ) ; minimum, seconds ; 0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. 3600 NS ns1.bitco.co.za. 0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. 3600 NS ns2.bitco.co.za. 9 86400 PTR mail.bitco.co.za Am I doing any thing wrong?
Found my problem. On the PTR record that gets added on ISPConfig just add a "." after the domain name and it stops it from adding the zone name. Regards
