Is it possible (technically and feasable) to have multiple rDNS entries for an IP address? I'm hosting several domains on my Linode and want all of them to properly reverse lookup.

TIA,

Hi,

You can only have one rdns entry per IP address.

Ok. Is this a linode restriction or a DNS restriction? (Just curious.)

It's a DNS limitation. It is not possible to have more than one reverse entry per forward entry.
