Reverse DNS Permission Required?

[markb14391]

Hi,

I keep hearing that reverse DNS requires activation by the data center. But when I asked my DC (FDC Servers) about it, they replied:

==========
For reverse authority over your IPs, please provide the following:

Put your ips in the following format:

subnet: 66.90.68

69 IN NS ns2.blah.com. <--- put dot
70 IN NS ns2.blah.com. <--- put dot

OR you can supply us with the PTR entires.

Please do so in this format:
Subnet 66.90.112

4 IN PTR blah.domain.com. <--- put dot
5 IN PTR another.domain.com. <--- put dot
==========

So it sounds as if he's saying that I can assert reverse authority over my IPs by using the first method. Am I correct in interpreting it that way? If so, where do I add those entries...at the root level or in WHM?

Thanks.

Hi,

I read it a little different.
They are asking you to supply to them the necessary info.
Maybe i am wrong, english is not my native language.

You read it correctly. The DC is requesting information and providing two formats the information should conform to.
