[cobalt-users] Reverse DNS Lookups



I have my Qube answering to several names:

     suma.guate.net
 www.suma.guate.net
 ftp.suma.guate.net
 pop.suma.guate.net
smtp.suma.guate.net
imap.suma.guate.net
 ns1.suma.guate.net

In my DNS settings, I have all of these records pointing to 200.12.41.130. I
also have reverse pointers to all those names. Now, from recent postings to
the list, I get the idea that perhaps this is wrong... that I should only
have reverse DNS from 200.12.41.130 --> suma.guate.net (i.e. a single name,
not seven of them).

Having spent several hours hunting for answers and coming home hungry, could
someone comment on this for me? Should I erase the other reverse lookups? Or
is everything fine this way?
