I would guess that for the most part ISPs provide a pool of addresses to their subscribers and your connection will obtain a new IP dynamically when it connects. If you have a static IP assigned to your connection (you are usually charged extra for this, at least in the UK you are) then the ISP may allow you to change the rDNS for that IP address as it is "owned" by you (but they might also charge you an admin fee for changing this).

Simple answer... the ISP is the owner of the IP address space, not you. You pay for a service which provides you with a static IP, but it isn't your IP address as far as the registries are concerned.

Just becuase the space is delegated to you does not mean you own it. That said, a CNAME will work internally, but not externally as the delegation chain will pass through your ISP and they will return an authoritative response with whatever data they have unless that data is delegated to your server. -- R.

Re: Reverse Records on a leash?
No -- and it's not BIND, it's the DNS spec. Reverse entries are in the .in-addr.arpa domian, not your domain name. - Original Message - From: Eduardo Bonsi [mailto:beart...@pacbell.net] Sent: Saturday, August 10, 2013 01:26 PM To: bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Re: Reverse Records on a leash?

How does it work, if I don't give the named.ca information for cache only dns server
Hi All, I have installed bind-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.5.x86_64 on CentOS 6.3, and the bind-chroot package is not installed.
