Been a few years since I last delved but was appalled at some of the pointless uses of rev-ptrs. NYT used to require it to let you connect to their website, as one such totally pointless use. Reality is that the only way to find out is see if users scream or do PTRs for all your addrs. For v6, on the fly generation is less broken than trying to depend on DHCPv6 server dynamic DNS updates (doesn't help for SLAAC). Someone has already mentioned that knot supports this. On the plus side, most idiots checking for rev-ptr only care if they get an answer. Unlike SMTP, where MTAs might check if forward and reverse match, as long as they get an answer, they go away fat, dumb and happy. -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
