in-addr.arpa registration
i was wondering if someone can help/give me guidelines on what do i do
to register a block for reverse IP queries/reverse domain, my case is,
a friend asked me why they can never do reverse lookups on their IP's
(they own the whole block, i.e. 208.162.24.*) and i found out that when I
do _$ nslookup -type=soa 24.162.208.in-addr.arpa. i get
***localhost can't find 24.162.208.in-addr.arpa.: Server failed
when i tried _$ nslookup -type=soa 162.208.in-addr.arpa. , i get this
162.208.in-addr.arpa
origin = ns.cw.net
mail addr = hostmaster.cw.net
serial = 1999012001
refresh = 3600 (1H)
retry = 600 (10M)
expire = 3600000 (5w6d16h)
minimum ttl = 3600 (1H)
Authoritative answers can be found from:
162.208.in-addr.arpa nameserver = ns.cw.net
162.208.in-addr.arpa nameserver = ns2.cw.net
162.208.in-addr.arpa nameserver = ns3.cw.net
ns.cw.net internet address = 204.70.128.1
ns2.cw.net internet address = 204.70.57.242
ns3.cw.net internet address = 204.70.25.234
the documentation that comes with bind says that reverse domain
registration is separate from forward domain registration, but forgot to
mention how to do it, the requirements, and whether there any fees for
this also? hope someone can help
thanks
