hostname if you ask for.
Well, you know, swiss is well known to be exact.
Here in Italy it is a bit more difficult to get a RDNS changed by Telecom
Italia: FWIK, they really don't care about RDNS and have no defined policies
about it.
A few months ago the said addresses were called
nn-nn-nn-nn.webcom.cablecom.ch until that day when SORBS just put all
these netblocks in its RBL as dynamic. And they refused to take it out
until the ISP changed the names to todays nn-nn-nn-nn.static.cablecom.ch
So it looks to me that this plugin should exclude hosts which have
*static*, *sta* or *fixed* in their DNS names.
SORBS uses the following Internet Draft for determining whether networks
are statically or dynamically by rDNS:
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/dnsop/draft-msullivan-dnsop-generic-naming-schemes-00.txt
It should only exempt "static" hosts if the larger rule is targeting
"dynamic hosts". That one regular expression is after dynamic hosts ...
but the larger rule is after "clients", not dynamic hosts. Therefore,
exempting "static" or "fixed" hostnames doesn't fit.
