Hi, I'm a little bit in the mix and I need some help. Recently I've requested to my ISP to delegate the reverse lookup to all my IP's. So acording to manual I've created a DNS Zone "249.121.86.in-addr.arpa." and in it a PTR Record with 147 at Name and "mail.mydomain.tld." at data. I've wait at least 24 hours to propagate and made a check at mxtoolbox.com and there the result is ptr:86.121.249.147 CNAME 147.249.121.86.in-addr.arpa 147.144-159.249.121.86.in-addr.arpa 24 hrs If someone cand point me in the right direction...
create a dns-zone 147.249.121.86.in-addr.arpa. with a ptr-record 147.249.121.86.in-addr.arpa. with the canonical hostname mail.mydomain.tld.
I've made the modification as you said and now in my syslog I've see this Dec 20 10:37:48 isp named[23826]: client 193.231.72.8#58998: query (cache) '147.144-159.249.121.86.in-addr.arpa/PTR/IN' denied It's something wrong (bind service is restarted)
Please check that you allow queries in your bind-setup. allow-query { any; }; in /etc/bind/named.conf
In my named.conf (Ubuntu) have only Code: include "/etc/bind/named.conf.options"; include "/etc/bind/named.conf.local"; include "/etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones"; Maybe in include "/etc/bind/named.conf.options"?
