Reverse DNS - works locally not from DNSStuff.com

[tribui]

Hi,

The PTR records show up locally when I dig -x 63.223.*.* however when I check on DNSStuff it says no PTR records are returned. I replaced the last 2 octets with *.

Here is DNSStuff output:

No PTR records exist for 63.223.*.*. [Neg TTL=86400 seconds]


As you can see my ISP has delegated lookups for my 5 IPs to my nameserver, I assume they did something like RFC2317.

Here is my Dig output:

dig -x 63.223.*.*

Can anyone tell me if I need to setup a special zone or something?

Thanks,

Please ask your ISP to create the PTR records for you.
