Hi Karyn, rfc2317 (which defines classless reverse) doesn't break it (although it is not explicit on this point) - rfc1912 only requires that the FQHN returned from a PTR record matches an A record. Going the other way - finding the PTR record itself via a CNAME - is not a violation. As an aside, rfc2137 unfortunately *does* allow the final delegate to pollute external resolvers with incorrect SOA records for the octet-boundary parent zone. That's just a typical DNS hazard, of course. -[ Joshua Goodall ]----------------------------------------------- -[ IP Systems Architect ]---------------- Cook, Geek, Lover ------ -[ [email protected] ]--------------- [email protected] -- On Fri, 18 Aug 2000, Karyn Ulriksen wrote: > What about when you're setting up ARPA entries referring to CIDR > allocations? > > as in ... > > 1.8.5.10.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN CNAME 1.0/24.8.5.10.in-addr.arpa. > > Somethings got to give there.
