For what its worth, I run a web server behind a Dlink router(DIR-825). I
have done that for about 6 years, the same box. I have not seen that
type of messages.

It does not need a PTR record, it can run without any DNS , except it is
non-practical.

What it does need is to be included in the virtual servers list in the
D-link router.

I guess you will have to be more specific about exactly which situation
creates the message and if possible which SW-module is responsible
before it is possible to help.
