HI all, first Eduardo: I did an upgrade with the mentioned package to 9.9.1 P1, it´s now up and running but doesn´t fix the problem. I have to correct one thing: It´s not a 10.6 client system it´s a 10.7.4 Server system, this is important because the client running this server does configure bind with Apple´s Admin Tools. When something doesn´t work he calls me and I log in via ssh and try to figure out what´s wrong. Telling the truth: I like vi very much...

The name of the server is ns1.hektor.de. Trying to send an email to a server trying to get the PTR record the sender receives an "Undelivered Mail..." mail with this: 550 inconsistent or no DNS PTR record for 213.191.95.3 (see RFC 1912 2.1) (in reply to RCPT TO command) Hope this helps to clear out the problem Best regards, Mike > Regards, > -- > -Chuck > _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
