Me, I'm paranoid. I could use 23 IN PTR mail but I chose to use 23 IN PTR mail.antonaylward.com.

Please note the period. The first only works if you have the named.conf set up correctly while the latter is more robust.

Uh, the former wouldn't work at all, you have to use the latter. Your zone file presumably has a $ORIGIN directive : $ORGIN x.168.192.in-addr.arpa. This is used for '23' and 'mail'. That'[s why you need to use 'mail.antonaylward.com.'. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (13.8°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free DNS hosting, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
