Unix 8.2 and reverse Lookup
We have Unix configured as our external DNS, forward DNS is working properly, however Reverse lookup is not working. Any idea what the problem is? I have checked the named.boot and .rev file and everything seems to be correctly. However it appears that the reverse zone file in the named.boot file is not been used.

What do I need to check to make sure the zone file is actual using the file listed?

What OS and version? Is this DNS software that came with the OS or did you build yours from download from Bind?

Without OS and version - can only guess that your /var/adm/messages may hold the clue for you. On starting the bind software it should place error messages into there.

Thank you all for your assistant apparently our ISP most host our reverse DNS and did not have this zone created. After running the DNS reverse tool from DNSStuff.com.
