Hello, I'm trying to get reverse dns to point to my domain on network but I'm failing. I am using bind dns with port 53 enabled and my ISP is mediacom. Currently my reverse dns is *.client.mchsi.com and I would like to make it example.com basically.
My bind configuration
I have 2 records, one for my private ip and one for my public just incase it needs to be my private one. Here is my private one, the public one is the same thing but with my IP in place.
I have tested both ways through dig on terminal and they work fine, but when I test using my dns providers dns server, it returns the same *.client.mchsi.com domain and not the one I specified. I waited 3 days to test again and I get the same result. The time to live returned by dig is 24 hours just to note. Any help?
I have users with laptops who may telnet from the local network one minute and then connect remotely a short time later from a different IP address.

Folks...have just stumbled on an issue where DNSstuff says there is no reverse dns in place when there is...as evidenced by a reverse check from 3 diff networks.
