[Fwd: RE: reverse dns]



Below, you will see a reply from ATT when asked for reverse dns. As I
see it, I need to provide reverse dns for myself. (Birch telecom did
this for me before...)

I have tried all day long to get this working and it has thoughly kicked
my butt! ha

The below does not seem to work. ns1.rcrnet.net still refers you to the
root which results in a loop.


12.5.224.rev

Dear AT&T Managed Internet Service Customer:

Our records indicate that AT&T does not host any DNS for you. We show only a  delegation for the IP block listed below:

192/26.224.5.12.in-addr.arpa

The reverse ip zone is currently being delegated to the following nameservers:

ns3.zoneedit.com
ns4.zoneedit.com
ns1.rcrnet.net
ns2.rcrnet.net

You will need to have your current dns provider set up the reverse zone and add the pointer records.

Find below a listing of criteria that needs to be met for AT&T to provide reverse look-up services:

(1)	IP block must be assigned by AT&T (Please note that just having an IP block and no forward domain is not sufficient)
(2)	If a customer owns their own IP block it must be delegated to our name servers.
(3)	If a customer has a IP block from another ISP it must be delegated to our name servers.  
(4)	At least one forward domain must be hosted on our servers for all three of  the conditions listed above.
(5)	The one forward domain must not be a lame delegation* but must contain DNS  records and not be a "dead" zone.


Thank You,

AT&T DNS TECH TEAM
