<p class=MsoNormal>Does anyone have a similar contact for network engineers at
Comcast for delegating or setting up reverse DNS? I've always been told
by Comcast that this isn't possible, but was wondering if it would be if we
bypassed their customer support.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>Thanks
to everyone that participated in this talk and for helping me out, providing
info and insight. I learned "stuff" about DNS in general and
learned some cool little bit along the way as well, and even learned a lot
about my cruddy ISP, AT&T, who has been nothing but a giant headache since
Day One (I already knew that they were cruddy but it's good to know that they
are equally cruddy and other people have experienced trouble with them, as
backward as that is). That's a good thing too. If we weren't locked
HARD into contracts with them (before my time) I would have cut and run long
ago. The clock is ticking though!<br>
<br>
ATT agreed (or a cool engineer did anyway...not the red-tape-pushers that don't
know DNS from a hole in the ground) to the delegation and we got our PTR Record
in place and we are again sending mail to those folks that do rDNS on inbound
mail. So, <b>we're back in business, everything is fixed and running
smoothly</b>, and <b><span style='color:#C00000;background:yellow'>youse
guys/gals have again proven that IT Discuss IS THE BEST!</span></b> A
simple question posted yesterday and within 24 hours not only are we
"fixed," but I've learned a great deal as well, and I even (get this)
ENJOYED MYSELF and the responses were as much entertainment as they were
informational. But as we techies all know, often/usually these are one in
the same.<br>
<br>
Thanks again, Gang. Y'all ROCK. I'm proud to be associated with
such a cool group, even as a distant lurker. Or does that even count?<br>
