Hi.
I'm having a problem with e-mails and DNS. I *think* it has something to do with the IN PTR record, judging from what I've been reading, but I'm not too sure as I'm not very experienced with these sorts of things.
Let's assume my domain is mydomainname.com . My IP is 123.234.78.90
Basically, when I send an e-mail from my server, it has the following in the header:
from myisp.com (xxx.yyy.zz.aa) by ip-123-234-78-90.ip.secureserver.net with (DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA encrypted) SMTP; 13 Apr 2007 09:37:21
As you can see, it's displaying "ip-123-234-78-90.ip.secureserver.net" (ie. A GoDaddy server) there instead of mydomainname.com.
How do I fix that?
I have a file called "78.234.123.in-addr.arpa" in /var/named/run-root/var . The file contains:
I'm really confused. I don't know what to change (or even where to start!).
Oh, also, I just noticed that the arpa file seems to have the "IN NS" entry set to that same value. Does that matter? The name server I give all my clients is ns.mydomainname.com.
Can someone give me some instructions, please? I'd really like to learn how to get this done properly.
Thanks!
