You won't be delegating anything, you need your provider to delegate a zone to you. They have to create a zone, called, say, 26-64.z.y.x.in-addr.arpa and point it to your name server. They then go through and CNAME the IP's in that range into the zone. You make a zone file for the zone that returns PTR records for those IP's. It sounds much more complicated than it really is. scott -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Dan Larsson Sent: Sunday, September 12, 1999 11:18 AM To: [FreeBSD-Questions-List] (E-post) Subject: help needed with non octet (cidr) address range name resolution My provider has given us an address range of x.y.z.64/26 (x.y.z.65 to x.y.z.126) I need to be able to resolve the ips to names and names to ips. I've read the O'Reilly BIND book. But I'm still a bit confused about how my reverse lookup database should look like as I'm not delegating the domains to any other name servers but my own (ns[1-2].mydomain.com). A real-world example would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!
