Bind9 - reverse dns ?

[Nelis Lamprecht]

Hi People,

I've been Googling around trying to find an example to setup reverse DNS on 
my server but have had no luck. I've read through the administrators guide 
also but there doesn't seem to be any clear info on setting this up. Hence 
I have resorted once again to the faithful FreeBSD mail list. Please could 
someone point me in the right direction. I'm using 4.6Stable with Bind9.

Many Thanks,
Nelis

Here's an example I found.  This would be for the 1.2.3.0 subnet.  Host
one.example.com is 1.2.3.1.  :

In your named.conf file:

zone  3.2.1.in-addr.arpa { 
type master; 
file  3.2.1.in-addr.arpa.zone; 
};

And the zone file:

$TTL 86400
@   IN  SOA @   root.localhost (
2 ; serial
28800 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
604800 ; expire 
86400 ; ttk
)


@   IN  NS  ns.example.com.

1   IN  PTR one.example.com.
2   IN  PTR two.example.com.

Hope that helps.
