    Default PTR Records

    Hello,
    My FreeBSD server runs cPanel/WHM and the nameservers have been delegated for my IP block's PTR records. How can i use WHM's DNS features to create/modify these records.

    Thanks

    Your datacenter should offer a portal to setup your reverse dns. If they do not, you may need to submit a support ticket.

    I have solved this. For anyone else interested, as long as your IPs are delegated to your nameservers for reverse DNS, add the domain zone in-addr.arpa to cPanel. In this zone, you can create your PTR records for the appropriate in-addr.arpa subdomains pointing to FQDNs.
