[afnog] DNS Problem (PTR Records on different subnets fails)

[Kayihura M. Eddy]

Hi Maina,

We have reverse DNS working on a server which is in a
different segment than the zones, so it should work.

 e.g.
> 0.2.168.192.in.addr.arpa is zone for 
> existing PTR records and new PTR record is on 172.16.0.0
> subnet which is different ). 

In this case, I would recommend that you add a zone
0.16.172.in.addr.arpa in which you would create the PTR
records for that block.

So the answer to this is Yes.


Hope this helps,

Cheers,

Eddy
