Hi all, my system is not malfunctioning included in the faq to read before post. My server is debian 12 with lastet ispconfig panel. I have many problem with gmail reverse ipv6 PTR entry . I contact my provider of my server. He saids to me to follow differents steps in the control panel of the server. In these steps, there is a special step: entry 'AAAA' to subdomain of my ispconfig panel. He tests with ping and nmap my server for ipv6, and the result is ok, server is ok for ipv6. But, he said "ISPconfig interface does not seem accessible on IPv6". to prove it he gives me the test results for ipv4 ok Code: curl -Ik https://[myipv4]:8080/login/ HTTP/2 200 expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT for ipv6 nok Code: curl -Ik -6 https://[myipv6]:8080/login/ curl: (35) error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol
It does not matter if you use IPv4 or IPv6 for ISPConfig access. The ISPConfig vhost listens on any IPv4 and IPv6 IP address of your server on port 8080. If you get a different answer for Ipv4 and Ipv6, then it might be that the two addresses point to different systems so the Ipv6 answer does not end up on the ISPConfig server or that a firewall or router you have in between routes the traffic differently. Besides that, accessing ISPConfig is not related to PTR records at all, so it does not matter if you can access ISPConfig by IPv4 or IPv6 for this. All you have to do is to create a PTR record for the Ipv6 address of your server on the DNS server that is responsible for this IP, this is typically the DNS server of the company that assigned you the IPv6 address and not your ISPConfig server.
And in case your Internet access provider really delegated reverse name service to you, which is very unlikely as you would have to run multiple DNS systems etc., so that is only something that you would do if you run a larger ISP infrastructure or data center on your own., then you can create a PTR record as described here: https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/setting-up-your-own-name-service-with-ispconfig/
Hi,all, now, on my server Code: dig -x 2001:41d0:a:5c3e:: return Code: ; <<>> DiG 9.18.24-1-Debian <<>> -x 2001:41d0:a:5c3e:: ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 24042 ;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 1232 ; COOKIE: ddd12a34acce7a24010000006622ceabd8b6b5cb9c5ec93c (good) ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.e.3.c.5.a.0.0.0.0.d.1.4.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.

Did you create a PTR record on the DNS server of your internet access provider (the one that provides this IPv6 address for your server)? Please post a screenshot of the record you created. Did you ask the support of that provider to confirm that the correct PTR record has been created in their systems for the IPv6 address they delegated to you?
I think that I have 2 possibilities: 1) I ask the support to install with me the revers DNS PTR entry. 2) I create my own PTR record with this link https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/setting-up-your-own-name-service-with-ispconfig/ I try the two without success. But now I linger on the second one. I post the screenshot of PTR Record: thks in advance,
No, you don't have these two possibilities. Only one of them is valid and which one it is is defined by your internet service provider and not by you. So you can not create your own PTR in ISPConfig unless the ISP explicitly delegated the responsibility for the PTR to your server, which is unlikely as most ISPs don't do that. If you create a PTR on your ISPConfig server and the responsibility has not been delegated, then creating this PTR has no effect as your server is not the authoritative DNS server for this subnet. Therefore, contact the support of your ISP or if your ISP or datacenter has a login system where you can set a PTR, then you must set it there.
thks, till I try now with my provider. my provider is ovh: soyoustart server debian 12 ovh send me a tutorial. https://github.com/ovh/docs/blob/de...compute/setup_instance_reverse/guide.en-us.md Unfortunatly, when I place an entry A or AAAA like this: xzave.laportance.net. A 2001:41d0:a:5c3e:: my ispconfig panel is not accessible.
And this tutorial tells you that you have to set up the IPv6 PTR record at OVH and not in ISPConfig, exactly as I told you. So there is no need to contact them then, just follow that guide. And take care to remove the reverse zone from ISPConfig.
I guess what you used there is your subnet and not your IP. Try using this instead: xzave.laportance.net. A 2001:41d0:a:5c3e::1
