[FX.php List] [OFF] Question about RDNS

[Jonathan Schwartz]

Each machine has its own dedicated IP.

In RDNS, the point is that it is looking up Domain Name after 
supplying an IP.  The domain name specified for the given IP is set 
by the "owner" of the IP.

The $64,000 question: do we enter the subdomain name or the domain 
name in the RDNS?
