[FreeDNS] Domain Registration Error



Hi Nyaniso

All of the IP addresses that you quote are acting as nameservers but they do not resolve to the FQDNs quoted. Reverse DNS for all of 72.36.165.234-236 resolve to bestptr.dedicatedplace.com. For a namesrever to function correctly, it should resolve in both directions - eg.

# host ns1.addmy.co.za
ns1.addmy.co.za has address 66.96.219.56
# host 66.96.219.56
56.219.96.66.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer ns1.addmy.co.za.

Looking at http://www.bestptrhosting.com gives a directory list rather than a genuine website so it does not look like the owner has the first idea of what he's doing.

My services operate with .co.za names for which I charge R99 per year for DNS (domain name is at cost - R50 - direct from Uniforum and I'll throw in an email address and website free). If anyone is interested, I will look at accommodating za.net /za.org as well.

Cheers

Tom Salter
