What would I need to > ask to my provider? > Thanks! You would have to find out if your provider would delegate rDNS for the IP address range to you. You would have to provide them with the name server IP addresses that would be serving rDNS. I can only assume if they will not set up the rDNS for you, they may not delegate rDNS either. If you are trying to set up an email server and your provider will not delegate or set up the rDNS, just set up your email server to relay outbound messages through your provider. That is exactly what I am doing here and have been for 5+ years without any issues. -- If at first you don't succeed... ...so much for skydiving.
