If you have an SSL cert for that computer, preferably the reverse lookup would resolve to the name used on the cert. However, with the possibility for multiple certs on one machine, even this becomes irrelevant. However, certainly, it should resolve to a name that is assigned to the host. >Probably I'll just ask them to delegate the subnet.
