Looking for a pointer on getting reverse mapping with DDNS to work with DHCPD & Named.

[Jim Bucks]

Hi Sten,

Thanks for the response,  I only dabble in DNS setups every 5 years (or
so).  I really thought this would be a "no brainer", and most likely have
some simple command / syntax error causing all of this.

00:0b:cd:33:b6:49 (proccilapxp) via eth1
