You can register records like this by messing up a reverse lookup record addition using DNSCMD.

Ulf, you explanation was great! I am sure it was someone (probably me!) just typed a .1 in some setting on the printer and allowed it to register in DNS. Many thanks. -- nme Noah Eiger ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ulf B.

Many are mixing up the zones with the "DNS-Subdomains" or whatever they are actually called. But in this case he even had it right, he said that under the domain zone he has the "_*"-folders as well as a folder "1". I had to reread too ;-) How are things? See you in March?

There is a single A-record under it for one of our printers. Any idea what this folder is? Thanks. -- nme
