RE: [cobalt-users] Mail Server Names

["John Cordeiro" <jcordeiro@xxxxxxxx>]

can you refer me to a document on this, I have always set up DNS this way.
Never new any different way.

What if the server is on a non route IP and you use NAT with one public IP.

John,

If domain.com and the www and mail hosts are all on the same IP,
he should *only* check "Create Reverse Lookup" on one of them,
typically domain.com. Learned this recently...
