I sent them the RFC yesterday and even sent them the KB article from SimpleDNS.com but I think they still have something done incorrectly. It's amazing how large hosts take proper DNS administration for granted these days. I don't have time to teach them how to do this anymore, so unfortunately I think I'm going to throw in the towel and just have them create the PTR records for me...right now I just need them to resolve! Thanks everyone for your input. I will reference this thread for them in the next few weeks if I'm able to fine someone able to make the proper changes. _______________________________________________ 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
