[cobalt-users] Reverse DNS & Sendmail (gethostbyaddr)



Hi everyone,

Can someone help me with an error I'm seeing in my
logs? I keep seeing this error

Sep 14 05:36:38 sendmail[7380]:
gethostbyaddr(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) failed: 1

If I perform a reverse DNS lookup on the IP in
question I get this

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx has no reverse DNS configured.

But I "do" have a PTR record on the IP pointing to the
domain, so why would it not reverse correctly?

Thanks for any insight

Barbara
