Re: Two domains names under the same IP: how to handle this issue ?
It strikes me that I haven't seen a general answer to the original question - how to set up PTR records when one is serving more than one domain under the same IP address. This is of particular interest to me in that I currently do this as well. What I'm doing now, seems to be working, but it's a matter of accident, not design (small cluster, originally set up to support company email and web servers for a few consulting clients, now also hosting a variety of email lists -- the web servers all have their own IP addresses, but the email domains share a common postfix installation -- the postfix configuration and dns records have just been adjusted over time). It's all working, nothing is getting blocked, but I'm not sure why. The original poster's question caught my attention - the RFCs suggest that there should be only one PTR record per IP address -- which begs the question of what do when one is serving multiple domains behind that IP (be they virtual web servers or mail servers). And I can't seem to find any established best practices (in RFC form or less formally) - just a lot of anecdotal stories. One thing that I've gathered is that how various programs - notably SMTP servers and anti-spam packages - make use of PTR records, and how they behave in the their absence, or in the case of mismatches, is idiosyncratic. Which leads to several obvious questions: - how does postfix use PTR records (e.g., which header lines are matched, at what points in the processing chain, ...)? - how does it react to the absence of a PTR record? - how does it react to mismatches (and in which headers)? - how much of this is configurable? Yes, a lot of this is buried in the documentation - and I'm going off to look - but the real question is: are there any lessons learned and/or best practices to be applied to the general case of serving multiple domains from the same IP address? Inquiring minds want to know! Miles Fidelman -- In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is. Yogi Berra

and that is why you should not mask infos if you seek for help
with the info above all would have been clear while honestly
you should understand the error message and what a FQDN is
your original post contained: "The FQDN is not seen in proper SMTP FQDN format:
It lacks the part" and "adtlas.com." is not a FQDN - so if you even
have a admin-backend ofr that why don#t you just enter "mail.adtlas.com." and
the same for the A-record and "smtp_helo_name"

don't do that, you machine needs on A-record and one maching
PTR with a matching HELO-hostname which both does not depend
on any domain it is hosting for email
if you have more than one records it's up to the client
which one he is using and that may lead to problems
Re: Two domains names under the same IP: how to handle this issue ?
Many thanks for your answer, but now I'l lost...
I rent one dedicated server at Online.net with two domains ("vehicall.com"
and "adtlas.com" at Namebay) and my provider's console allows me to manage
the reverse DNS.
Actually I've since a while "adtlas.com." defined for "88.191.117.125" as
reverse.
How may I define two reverse, one for each domain, pointing to my single IP
? Is it legal ? Is it possible ?
Maybe I'm totally wrong...

why don't you ask a nameserver others also asking?
nslookup xx.xxx.xxx.xxx 8.8.8.8
why don't you just open the link below?

frankly, it makes me angry if people
* don't quote what they are replying to
* don't read informations someone provides them
if you would not strip your IP for no good reason i could even
tell you what nameservers are responsible for your PTR
what you create on your BIND don't matter until you have at least
a /24 network and a agreement with your ISP that he makes your
nameservers responsible for in-addr-arpa of that subnet and that
is not easy to achieve - been there done that, took years of asking

Re: Two domains names under the same IP: how to handle this issue ?
Many thanks for your answer ! In fact I've already in the BIND configuration of zone-one.com: "zone-one.com. A xx.xxx.xxx.xxx" "mx1.zone-one.com. A xx.xxx.xxx.xxx" "zone-one.com. MX 10 mx1.zone-one.com." "xx.xxx.xxx.xxx.zone-one.com. PTR zone-one.com." Same is true for zone-two.com with exactly the same related parameters !

you need a PTR record which needs to match the A-record of your IP and for
the sake of a clean setup "myhostname" in main.cf or at least "smtp_helo_name"
should match that too

this is one of the *basic* setups before install a mailserver

you can host 100, 200, 1000 domains on one server and IP and so the
subject has nothing to do with your problem above
Two domains names under the same IP: how to handle this issue ?
Hello,
Please let me expose my problem to your sagacity :-)
Under Ubuntu 10.04, I'm running one dedicated server with Postix 2.7.0 and
Bind 9.7.0 to host two Web sites: site-one.com and site-two.com.
Accordingly, I've defined one email account for each one:
webcont...@site-one.com and webcont...@site-two.com.
Unfortunately when I'm doing the tests with MultiRBL.valli.org, my IP is
ONLY blacklisted on V4BL.org with the following sentence:
Your email is from domain "site-one.com", this IP is from domain
"site-two.com".
IP "xx.xxx.xxx.xxx" remain listed because:
- The underlying domain ("site-two.com") lacks credibility.
- The FQDN is not seen in proper SMTP FQDN format: It lacks the
part.
What do you suggest me to resolve this issue ? I can provide my main.conf
file for examination !
Thanks in advance for your appreciated help,
Germain
