Your ISP is probably speaking of secondary dns. Tell your ISP that you are requesting for reverse dns delegation to your DNS the IP addresses assigned to you. You may not have a full block of IP addresses, so your ISP will tell you that they can only do reverse dns delegation for a /24 network. Tell them, that you are asking for a "classless" delegation.
Unfortunately, not too many ISPs know about the technique, specially that most of our ISPs use bind, and some people (including myself) use djb's dns. I had to refer them to an RFC and a how to in order to have this thing done. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2317.txt http://www.anders.com/projects/sysadmin/tinydns.html On 5/29/07, seekuel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello people, > > I have a DNS Server with IPs 61.9.95.21 and 61.9.95.22 I like this to be an > authoritative dns server.
