Thanks for the clarification. I guess my biggest problem with the docs was
my lack of understanding of the actual meaning of A and PTR records (which
was solved once I had a look at RFC 1034 - up until just now, all I found
about PTRs was "a domain name pointer" which didn't tell me much)...

Thanks again,
