You may be missing the fact that AT&T owns the reverse IP name space for
your server. If you are providing forward DNS, you may find AT&T willing to
put a PTR value for you or delegate the name space to you for your range.
They all seem to do it a little different.

Subject: [ActiveDir] OT :: Reverse Lookup Issues

We have recently started hosting our own DNS and I am having issues sending
e-mail to some people.
I thought it may be a DNS issue so I went to the site www.dnsstuff.com and
did a reverse DNS lookup.
My results show that there is no Reverse lookup for my Website
www.profit-lab.com  or my mail server mail.profit-lab.com

Now what is confusing is I have set up the Reverse Zones and When I create a
record it automatically creates a  PTR in the Reverse zones....


Am I missing something?  A port   or activation?


TIA ,
Joshua
