Our DNS is egrand.egsd.k12.co.us mapped to 204.228.81.68. We have a reverse zone in which we have the PTR record "68.81.228.204.in-addr.arpa. PTR egrand.egsd.k12.co.us. Do I add the following PTR record to the reverse zone: 68.81.228.204.in-addr.arpa. PTR egrand.egsd.org and do the same for anyother hosts that I add to the egsd.org zone? Thanks for all the help!
