I’m new to pdns.. and I’ve read the docs and seen how PTR records are supposed to be setup but I can’t get reverse lookups to work.. nor can I see from the default sql queries how they would ever be found. So I assume I’m missing something. =]

I’m also not clear on weather the generic mysql backend supports auto serials (conflicting info in the docs) or how that is to be implemented.

When I attempt a reverse lookup for an internernal test IP I see the following queries get run against the mysql server..

select content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,name from records where name='192.168.103.32' select content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,name from records where name='*.168.103.32' select content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,name from records where name='*.103.32'
select content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,name from records where name='*.32'

I fail to see how this will ever match the format of the PTR recs I’ve seen suggested as name,type,content:

32.103.168.92.in-addr.arpa PTR testserver.test.net

I do have a reverse domain defined in the domains table.. but I don’t see that it ever gets queried.


Hi,

euh..., Jared, maybe I'm wrong, but do you know how to do a reverse lookup ?

This is normally what you would do:

dig @serverip -x 192.168.103.32

(I think Mac OS X, which you seem to be using judging by your e-mail-client, has the 'dig' command)

it will send a PTR-query for: 32.103.168.92.in-addr.arpa

which should result in a database-query for:

select content,ttl,prio,type,domain_id,name from records where name='32.103.168.92.in-addr.arpa'

Hope that helps.

Have a good day,
Leen.

What’s going sideways here?

Thanks,
Jared
