I asked Ameritech - oops SBC to add a reverse dns entry for me, instead it appears they have delegated rdns to me.
I tried http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/ptr.ch?ip=65.42.199.3 to see what is happening. I don't quite understand the Got CNAME referral to ns2.ostgaard.com (zone 3.0.199.42.65.in-addr.arpa) should this not return (zone 3.199.42.65.in-addr.arpa) ? Is this the correct response, or have they not quite done the delegation correctly? How I am searching: Asking e.root-servers.net for 3.199.42.65.in-addr.arpa PTR record: e.root-servers.net says to go to ginseng.arin.net. (zone: 65.in-addr.arpa.)
