Come to think of it I don't have the trailing dot either. I thought the dot was to terminate domain name qualification for forwarder records.
zone "174.50.10.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "db.10.50.174"; }; -----Original Message----- From: bind-users <bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org> On Behalf Of Cuttler, Brian R (HEALTH) via bind-users Sent: Friday, November 4, 2022 2:09 PM To: Grant Taylor <gtay...@tnetconsulting.net>; bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: RE: Reverse lookups not working when Internet connection failed.

My pointer zones are more like Zone "28.66.136.193.in-addr.arpa.", I've never had that leading "0-" Is that typical?

This is > getting complicated 😉 So when your system(s) try to do a reverse DNS (PTR) lookup for 193.136.66.1, it will actually do a PTR lookup for 1.66.136.193.in-addr.arpa. and fail because you don't have a copy of the 66.136.193.in-addr.arpa. zone file locally. At least my understanding is that you have a copy of your forward zone, and your 0-28.66.136.193.in-addr.arpa. zone. But you don't have a copy of, nor access to, the intermediate 66.136.193.in-addr.arpa. zone that references the 0-28.66.136.193.in-addr.arpa. zone. Does that help?
