[Pdns-users] Reverse lookups?

[Mathew Walker]

Lonnie,

You basically do the reverse of a forward domain lookup.

Insert a domain into the "domains" table with a name of
"73.177.205.in-addr.arpa".

Then when you add reverse PTR records for that domain you'd insert

Id,domain_id,"241.73.177.205.in-addr.arpa","PTR","www.outstep.com",`TTL`,"0"
,`change_date`

You'll obviously have to insert the correct domain_id and your TTL and
changedate, but I hope you get the picture.

Cheers

Mathew Walker

I'd like to thank everyone who help me get everything configured and
running.

PowerDNS looks to be exactly what I have been looking to get
established.

I did have one other question.

Now it seems that if I have a domain name then I can do something like:

nslookup www.outstep.com

but what about doing reverse lookups

nslookup 205.177.73.241

How can I get reverse lookup working for my domains?

Thanks,
