this looks like a bug in records.php. The domain name is getting appended to a in-addr.arpa extension. Try this patch: http://shupp.org/patches/ptr.patch Note that the Hostname should be the form of <ipaddress>-in-addr.arpa., and the address should be the whatever you want it to point to, like ns1.nameserver.com, or whatever. Please report your findings. Regards, Bill
