Reverse DNS Entries

[hci]

I need to create a number of reverse DNS entries. Can anyone tell me an easy way to do that without breaking anything in Directadmin?

Actually I need to create 767 of them.

On my old Raq550 Redhat box I did it in:

/var/lib/named/etc/named/db.3.3.12.in-addr.arpa.include

With entries like so in the include file:

1 in ptr 12.3.3.1.broadband.mydomain.com.
2 in ptr 12.3.3.2.broadband.mydomain.com.
2 in ptr 12.3.3.3.broadband.mydomain.com.
...

How do I do this on the FedoraII box without hurting Directadmin?

Thanks.

Matthew

You can create your own include file in /etc/named.conf.

You can also use a macro in the zone file rather than have to type in all those lines.

However teaching that is beyond the scope of this forum. If you're doing that you might want to buy the O'Reilly book on DNS.

Before you do, be sure your upstream has delegated the reverse DNS to you; otherwise you're just wasting time.
