I've been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out what I'm
missing.
I'm running DNS on Windows 2003. I've got everything working EXCEPT,
whenever I run dnsreports.com, I fail the checkup for Reverse DNS entries for
MX records. Now I have an MX record on my DNS server and have been receiving
and sending mail fine. I killed and recreated the MX record, but it does not
seem to have an automatic reverse record created. I've gone in and made sure
there is a reverse lookup PTR record to the server where mail resides. The
machine mail is on is just a normal server, not named special or
mail.sreb.org or anything of the like. I run DNS on my server, and have
alternate name service by way of the University System of Georgia.
Is this something missing on my DNS system, or is it indicating a record
problem on one of the external name servers? And if it is on my DNS server,
what do I need to do to add the proper record? Everything I've looked at
seems right, so I need a little help if possible.
Many thanks.
