Are you trying to put that PTR record in the same file as the rest of those records? If so, that's not going to work: Every record in a given zone must have a name that ends in the name of the zone. If that's not the problem, perhaps you could try copying the record and pasting it into a message, so we can see it as QuickDNS Pro sees it. I notice that your reverse record isn't delegated to your server, so you don't currently have the capacity to make PTR records that the world will see. Here's what I mean: Your servers: mediancer.ch. NS dns1.mediancer.ch. mediancer.ch. NS dns2.mediancer.ch. from f.root-servers.net: 195.in-addr.arpa. NS ns.ripe.net. 195.in-addr.arpa. NS ns.eu.net. 195.in-addr.arpa. NS auth03.ns.uu.net. 195.in-addr.arpa. NS ns2.nic.fr. 195.in-addr.arpa. NS sunic.sunet.se. 195.in-addr.arpa. NS munnari.oz.au. 195.in-addr.arpa. NS ns.apnic.net. from ns.eu.net: 207.202.195.in-addr.arpa. NS eiger.urbanet.ch. 207.202.195.in-addr.arpa. NS salantin.urbanet.ch. from eiger.urbanet.ch: 207.202.195.in-addr.arpa. NS eiger.urbanet.ch. 207.202.195.in-addr.arpa. NS salantin.urbanet.ch. 56.207.202.195.in-addr.arpa. PTR 195.202.207.urbanet.ch. You might want to talk to whoever assigned these addresses to you about this matter. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice cbuxton@menandmice.com We Make DNS Easy!
